The round-the-clock availability that cell phones and pagers have【C1】______ to people’s lives may be taking a toll on family life, a new study suggests. The study, which【C2】______ more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone or pager throughout the study period were more likely to report negative "spillover" between work and home life -- and, in【C3】______ , less satisfaction with their family life.

Work life may【C4】______ home life-when a parent is taking job-related calls at home, for instance- or household issues may start to take up【C5】______ time.

This may be【C6】______ true for working women, the study found. Among men, consistent use of mobile phones and pagers seemed to allow more work issues to creep into family time. But for women, the spillover tended to go in both【C7】______ -- being "connected" meant that work cut into home time, and family issues seeped into work life.
The point, Chesley said, is that cell phones and pagers seem to be opening more lines for【C8】______ exchanges among family members, rather than positive ones. But there may be ways to stem the spillover, according to Chesley. Employers, she said, could look at their policies on contacting employees after-hours to make【C9】______ their expectations are "reasonable". For their part, employees could decide that cell phones and pagers go off during【C10】______ family time, Chesley said.
