Job Satisfaction, Work Time, and Well-Being Among Married Women in Japan
研究了日本有孩子的已婚女性的工作时间与幸福感（工作满意度和压力）的关系，发现实际与期望工作时间的差距以及工作本身带来的内在效用比工作时间长短更重要，并讨论了工作时间的多重溢出效应。
Abstract This paper examines the relationship between paid work time and other time use of working married women with children in Japan and two aspects of well-being: job satisfaction and stress. The study demonstrates that rather than the amount of daily paid work time, both the gap between actual and desired work time and the intrinsic utility derived from paid work as an activity appear to be the key time-related variables affecting Japanese women's job satisfaction. The paper also shows that paid work time has multiple spillover effects on stress. It discusses the tradeoffs that married women with children in Japan make to stay in employment and the consequences for employer strategies and public policy.
