Abstract
The authors interviewed 28 dual-career families with young children and found that the wives and mothers in particular experience difficulties in respect to the proliferation of role demands in both home and job situations. The greatest strain was in the maternal role; guilt and anxiety were prominent. The literature is reviewed, techniques used by dual-career families to resolve role strain are discussed, and suggestions are made for the clinician's role as facilitator for reducing role strain among career mothers.
