Abstract
Bedtime procrastination is a newly emerging area of research, focusing on the active delay of bedtime and its potential negative impact on health and sleep behavior. This study aimed to explore the relationship between work-family conflict and deliberate bedtime procrastination, with self-control acting as a potential moderator. A total of 149 participants (53.7% female, Mage = 38.8, 47.6% Dutch, working at least 20 hours per week) took part in this correlational study. Participants completed a baseline questionnaire and a 5-day daily diary, consisting of two short questionnaires per day (morning and evening). Convenience sampling was used for participant recruitment. The study hypotheses posited a positive association between work-family conflict and deliberate bedtime procrastination and further proposed that self-control would moderate this relationship by reducing both work-family conflict and engagement in deliberate bedtime procrastination. However, the results indicated a weak and nonsignificant positive correlation between work-family conflict and deliberate bedtime procrastination (r = .10, p = .22). Moreover, the interaction effect between work-family conflict and self-control did not reach statistical significance (ß = -.0032, p = .97), suggesting that self-control does not significantly moderate the relationship between work-family conflict and deliberate bedtime procrastination. The study's findings provide insights into bedtime procrastination, emphasizing the need for future research to explore additional factors and potential mediators/moderators influencing the relationship between work-family conflict and bedtime procrastination. A deeper understanding of factors influencing bedtime procrastination can inform the development of effective interventions aimed at reducing this behavior. Keywords: deliberate bedtime procrastination, bedtime procrastination, self-control, work-family conflict
