Abstract

The primary purpose of this convergent mixed-methods study was to find out the work-life balance of collegiate professors in Region XI through survey, interview and focus group discussion. For the quantitative phase, a total of 405 respondents participated in the survey and a total of 17 informants were interviewed for the qualitative phase within the same time frame. The 17 informants were not part of the 405 respondents in conformity with the research approach for convergent mixed methods study. In analyzing the data, descriptive statistics and ANOVA were used for the quantitative aspect and thematic analysis for the qualitative aspect. Empirical findings showed that the level of work-life balance of collegiate professors was high. The non-significant difference in the work-life balance of collegiate professors was apparent when analyzed by age, gender, and marital status. The qualitative analysis made use of the indicators of the quantitative survey as a priori themes: family-work conflict, work-family conflict, family satisfaction, and work satisfaction. The results obtained from the in-depth interview and focus group discussion in the qualitative aspect of the study confirmed the findings in the quantitative phase, hence the nature of integration is merging – confirmation showing that the collegiate professors involved in the study have favorable work-life balance.
