Analyzing data from @ESS_Survey across 29 countries, we identified 5 profiles of work-family digital communication & three concerning patterns:
1⃣ Gendered digital double burden: women are more likely to juggle the 'dual burden' of digital labor both at home and at work (2/5)
After an impressive 5 years supporting the @BSA_FARGroup community, @JCWalsh5 is today stepping down as co-convener. We want to say a huge thank you to Julie for all her amazing work in this role and for being such an amazing and supportive colleague. We will miss you!
