Interpretation:
It is found from the table 4.6 that majority (i.e.) 64.0 per cent of the respondents
obtained high level and 36.0 per cent of the respondents obtained low level with regard
to work recognition among women police personnel.

It is inferred that more than half (i.e.) 52.0 per cent of the respondents acquired
high level and 48.0 per cent of the respondents acquired low level with regard to
superior support among women police personnel.

It is revealed that more than half (i.e.) 51.5 per cent of the respondents obtained
high level and 48.5 per cent of the respondents obtained low level with regard to
Organisation stress among women police personnel.

It is evident that more than half (i.e.) 50.5 per cent of the respondents got high
level and 49.5 per cent of the respondents got low level with regard to job stress among
women police personnel.

It is understood that more than half (i.e.) 57.0 per cent of the respondents had
high level and 43.0 per cent of the respondents had low level with regard to Group
stress among women police personnel.

It is observed that more than half (i.e.) 52.0 per cent of the respondents
acquired high level and 48.0 per cent of the respondents acquired low level with regard
to individual stress among women police personnel.

It is evident that majority (i.e.) 67.5 per cent of the respondents had high level
and 32.5 per cent of the respondents had low level with regard to work place problems
among women police personnel.

It is understood that more than half (i.e.) 55.0 per cent of the respondents
obtained high level and 45.0 per cent of the respondents obtained low level with regard
to job satisfaction among women police personnel.

Interpretation:
The table 4.6.3 shows that there is a highly significant relationship among the
various dimensions of organisational factors such as work recognition, superior
support, organisation stress, job stress, group stress, individual stress, work place
problems and job satisfaction at 0.01 level.

100
The table depicts that work recognition had influence on the other dimensions
such as superior support, organisation stress, job stress, group stress, individual stress,
work place problems and job satisfaction. It depicts that superior support had influence
on the other dimensions such as organisation stress, job stress, group stress, individual
stress, work place problems and job satisfaction. It also depicts that organisation stress
had influence on the other dimensions such as job stress, group stress, individual stress,
work place problems and job satisfaction. The job stress had influence on the other
dimensions such as group stress, individual stress, work place problems and job
satisfaction. The group stress had influence on the other dimensions such as individual
stress, work place problems and job satisfaction and the individual stress had influence
on the other dimensions such as work place problems and job satisfaction.

H0: There is no significant variance among the respondents‟ Designation with regard to
various dimensions of Organisational factors among the women police personnel.

Statistical tool: „ANOVA‟-test

Interpretation:
From the table 4.6.7 it is inferred that there is a highly significant variance
among the respondents‟ designation with regard to Work Recognition (F = 21.506,
P < 0.001), besides mean score indicates that Inspector (Armed Reserve) group

113
(mean=18.0001), had higher Work Recognition when compared to other groups like
Constable(LandO), Head Constable(LandO), Sub Inspector(LandO), Inspector(LandO),
Constable (Armed Reserve), Head Constable (Armed Reserve) and Sub Inspector
(Armed Reserve). It is found that there is a highly significant variance among the
respondents‟ designation with regard to Superior support (F = 17.149, P < 0.001),
besides the mean score indicates that Inspector (Armed Reserve) group
(mean=34.0001), had higher Superior support when compared to other groups. It is
understood that there is a highly significant variance among the respondents‟
designation with regard to Organisation stress (F = 8.034, P < 0.001), besides the mean
score indicates that Sub Inspector (Armed Reserve) group (mean=60.1429), had higher
Organisation stress when compared to other groups. It is found that there is a highly
significant variance among the respondents‟ designation with regard to Job stress
(F = 14.217, P < 0.001), besides the mean score indicates that Inspector (LandO) group
(mean=61.0000), had higher Job stress when compared to other groups. It is evident
that there is a highly significant variance among the respondents‟ designation with
regard to Group stress (F = 5.903, P < 0.001), besides the mean score indicates that
Inspector (LandO) group (mean=35.0000), had higher Group stress when compared to
other groups. It is known that there is a significant variance among the respondents‟
designation with regard to Individual stress (F = 3.923, P < 0.01), besides the mean
score indicates that Sub Inspector (LandO) group (mean=54.5714), had higher
Individual stress when compared to other groups. It is observed that there is a highly
significant variance among the respondents‟ designation with regard to Work place
problems (F = 10.268, P < 0.001), besides the mean score indicates that Inspector
(LandO) group (mean=27.0000), had higher Work place problems when compared to
other groups. It is found that there is a highly significant variance among the
respondents‟ designation with regard to Job Satisfaction (F = 9.359, P < 0.001), besides
the mean score indicates that Inspector (LandO) group (mean=66.2500), had higher Job
Satisfaction when compared to other groups.

H1: It was found that there is a significant variance among the respondents‟ designation
with regard to various dimensions of Organisational factors among the women police
personnel.

Hence null hypothesis is rejected.

Interpretation
The table 4.8.15 exhibited that correlation of the independent variables against
the dependent variable R is 0.577 with R square 0.333. The F statistic is 32.678 and
significant at 0.000 level. The independent variables was Emotional Intelligence,
Organisational Factors and Societal Factors. As shown in the above table,
Organisational factors score higher value 8.424, which is significant at 0.000 level
when compared to other independent variables such as Emotional Intelligence and
Societal Factors.

H1: It was found that there is a significant relationship between Work-life balance
among women police personnel and various dimensions of Emotional Intelligence,
Organisational Factors and Societal Factors.
Hence null hypothesis is rejected.

STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODEL ON WORK-LIFE BALANCE AMONG


WOMEN POLICE PERSONNEL

Figure: 4.1

Interpretation
Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a statistical modeling technique that
combines factor analysis and multivariate multiple regressions. Structural equation
provides estimation of multiple and interrelated dependence relationship and the
capacity to stand for unobserved concepts in these association and explanation for
measurement error in the estimation process. The primary aim of SEM is to explain the
model of a sequence of inter-related dependence associations simultaneously among a
set of dormant (unobserved) constructs, each measured by one or more manifest
(observed) variables. SEM is a multivariate technique which combines confirmatory
factor analysis modeling from psychometric theory and structural equations modeling.

The three predictors are allowed to covary; predictors‟ covariances are shown in
the diagram. The covariance between Organisational factors and societal factors
indicator is 0.61. The covariance between Emotional intelligence and Organisation
factors indicator is 0.43. The covariance between Emotional intelligence and Societal
factors indicator is (-) 0.31. The covariance Work life balance indicator is 0.33. The
unstandardized regression of the Organisational factors is (-) 0.66. Since the

186
unstandardized regression coefficient represents the amount of change in the dependent
variable per single unit change in the predictor variable, this result suggests that for
every single unit of increase in Organisational factors level, work-life balance is
reduced by (-)0.66. The unstandardized regression of the Societal factors is (-) 0.10.
Since the unstandardized regression coefficient represents the amount of change in the
dependent variable per single unit change in the predictor variable, this result suggests
that for every single unit of increase in Societal factors level, work-life balance is
reduced by (-)0.10.

The variables used in the structural equation model are,

i) Observed, endogenous variable


1. Overall work-life balance among women police personnel

ii) Observed, exogenous variables


1. Emotional Intelligence.
2. Organisational factors
3. Societal factors

iii) Unobserved, exogenous variable

It is inferred from the table 4.9.1 that estimate of 3.980 represents partial effect
of Emotional Intelligence towards Work Life Balance. The estimated positive sign
implies that such effect is positive that Work Life Balance problem would increase by
3.980 for every factors increase problem in Emotional Intelligence and this coefficient
value is significant at p < 0.001 level.

It is inferred that estimate of 1.728 represents partial effect of Organisation


Factors towards Work Life Balance. The estimated positive sign implies that such
effect is positive that Work Life Balance problem would increase by 1.728 for every
factors increase problem in Organisation Factors and this coefficient value is significant
at p < 0.001 level.

It is inferred that estimate of 219.216 represents partial effect of societal factors


towards Emotional Intelligence. The estimated positive sign implies that such effect is
positive that Emotional Intelligence problem would increase by 219.216 for every
factors increase problem in Societal factors and this coefficient value is significant at p
< 0.001 level.

188
It is inferred that estimate of 1487.510 represents partial effect of Societal
factors towards Organisation factors. The estimated positive sign implies that such
effect is positive that Organisation factors problem would increase by 1487.510 for
every factors increase problem in Societal factors and this coefficient value is
significant at p < 0.001 level.

It is inferred that estimate of 1107.898 represents partial effect of Organisation


factors towards Emotional Intelligence. The estimated positive sign implies that such
effect is positive that Emotional Intelligence problem would increase by 1107.898 for
every factors increase problem in Organisation factors and this coefficient value is
significant at p < 0.001 level.
