Gender Differences in the Definition and Perception of Household Labor.
Shaw, Susan M.
Family Relations, v37 n3 p333-37 Jul 1988
Time-budget and interview study with 60 married couples analyzed household labor activities in terms of whether they were experienced as work or leisure, and in terms of their perceptual dimensions and objective situational contexts. Found women defined their household labor activities more often as work than did males, and that situational contexts were more negative for women. (Author/NB)
