AB  - The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between research demands, family demands
and research-life conflict. Besides, this study was also conducted to find out which variable makes the
strongest unique contribution to explain research-life conflict. The sample of this study came from 240 working
women in one of the agencies under Malaysia’s Ministry of Plantation Industries and Commodities. They were
chosen to participate in this study using purposive sampling technique. A survey questionnaire was used as
research instrument for data collection. The findings of this study were supported by previous researchers in
which the findings revealed the significant relationship between work demands and family demands with
research-life conflict. Meanwhile, research demands were found to be the dominant factor of this study. The
issue of research-life conflict should be taken seriously because the effects could be serious not only to
individual researchers but also the organizations that employ them and the families who care for them.
