Time Spent in Home Production in the Twentieth-Century United States: New Estimates from Old Data
利用历史时间日记研究和近期时间使用调查，重新估计了二十世纪美国人在家庭生产上的时间投入，发现主要年龄段女性投入时间先降后降，男性则持续增加，人均时间略有上升。
This article presents new estimates of time spent in home production in the United States during the twentieth century. Historical time-diary studies for various segments of the population are linked to estimates from recent time use surveys. The new estimates suggest that time spent in home production by prime-age women fell by around six hours from 1900 to 1965 and by another 12 hours from 1965 to 2005. Time spent by prime-age men rose by 13 hours from 1900 to 2005. Average across the entire population, per capita time spent in home production increased slightly over the century.
