Schaufelic  \naDepartment of Education and Social Policy, University of Macedonia, Thessaloniki, Greece; bMedical School of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece; c Utrecht University, Utrecht, the Netherlands  \n(Received 4 May 2006; ﬁnal version received 23 October 2008)  \nStudies of work and family issues have used predominately between-subject crosssectional designs. While some researchers have called for more longitudinal studies, others have suggested that a more strategic way forward for the field is the use of daily diary studies (Frone, Russell, & Cooper, 1992) . This study explores different types of interference between work and non-work domains, using a diary study methodology. This study consisted of a two-week diary study among 12 Irish employees. Analysis involved a two-step procedure involving both content analysis and interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) . Results indicated that while individuals reported strain-based and time-based interference, evidence was also found of interference concerning persistent and intrusive thoughts.  \nDespite some limitations to the study, this paper demonstrates that diary studies represent an opportunity for researchers to explore work and non-work experiences in a sensitive and ecologically valid way.  \nKeywords: diary study; work􀀁family interference; family􀀁work interference;  \ninterpretative phenomenological analysis  \nEstudios sobre temas relacionados con el trabajo y la familia han utilizado principalmente disen˜os de investigacio´ n cross-seccionales y entre-sujetos. Mientras que algunos investigadores han solicitado ma´s estudios longitudinales, otros han sugerido que una manera ma´s estratgica de avance cientı´fico en este a´mbitoes el uso de estudios de diario (Frone, Russell, y Cooper, 1992) . Este estudio explora los diferentes tipos de interferencias entre los dominios de trabajo y no trabajo, utilizando una metodologı´a de estudio de diario, que se llevo´ a cabo durante dos semanas con una muestra de doce empleados irlandeses. Los ana´lisis de datos se llevaron a cabo con un procedimiento de dos pasos, ana´lisis decontenido y ana´lisis fenomenolo´gico interpretativo. Los resultados indicaron que los participantes mostraron interferencia basada en estrs y en el tiempo, aunque tambin hubo evidencia respecto a pensamientos persistentes e intrusivos. A pesar de algunas limitaciones del estudio, este trabajo demuestra que el estudio de diario representa una oportunidad para los investigadores de explorar lasexperiencias de trabajo y no trabajo de forma ecolo´gicamente sensible y va´lida.  \nPalabras claves: estudio de diario; interferencia familia􀀁trabajo; interferencia trabajo􀀁familia; ana´lisis fenomenolo´gico interpretativo  \n*Corresponding author.

Montgomery et al.  \nExploring types of interference between work and non-work: using a diary study approach  \nReconciling work and family life has become an increasingly important issue for European countries. Indeed, the EU social policy agenda (European Commission, 2000) and EU employment guidelines (Fagan, 2004) have included the compatibility of work and family life as a central policy issue. Changes in family structures, increasing participation by women in the workforce, and technological changes, such as the use of mobile phones and portable computers (Chesley, 2005; Rakow & Navarro, 1993; Sproull, 2000) that enable job tasks to be performed in a variety of locations have blurred the boundaries between work and family/personal life.
