Family members' perceptions of challenges associated with military life can spillover to their relationships with one another and, in turn, inform service members' beliefs of how their work impacts family life. The current study examined connections between active-duty fathers', civilian mothers', and adolescents' perceptions of military-related stress, adolescents' perceptions of quality of family relationships (i.e. parent-adolescent relationships), and service members' perceived work-family impact (specifically work-related guilt and work-related enrichment). To examine these associations, a path analysis with secondary cross-sectional data was estimated using data from 228 Army families (each with an active-duty father, civilian mother, and adolescent offspring). The findings suggested that service members' perceptions of military-related stress and adolescents' relationship quality with parents were related to service members' work-family impact, specifically work-related enrichment. Such associations highlight the importance of high-quality parent-adolescent relationships for active-duty fathers' work-family impact, which has implications for military families but, more broadly, for service members' readiness and retention.
