[HTML][HTML] Gender, division of unpaid family work and psychological distress in dual-earner families
Clinical practice and epidemiology in mental health: CP & EMH, 2010•ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Methods: Analysis of data obtained from a cross-sectional telephone survey conducted in a
Canadian city. Analyses were based on 293 employed parents (182 mothers and 111
fathers), with at least one preschool child, living in dual-earner households. Several multiple
linear regression models were estimated with psychological distress as the outcome,
adjusting for confounders. Results: For mothers, more perceived time spent in child rearing
(particularly primary child care) and high-schedule-control housework tasks (eg yard work) …

Methods:
Analysis of data obtained from a cross-sectional telephone survey conducted in a Canadian city. Analyses were based on 293 employed parents (182 mothers and 111 fathers), with at least one preschool child, living in dual-earner households. Several multiple linear regression models were estimated with psychological distress as the outcome, adjusting for confounders.
Results:
For mothers, more perceived time spent in child rearing (particularly primary child care) and high-schedule-control housework tasks (eg yard work) relative to one’s partner, were associated with greater distress. For fathers, perceived unfairness in the division of housework and child rearing were associated with greater distress.
Conclusion:
Although methodological limitations temper firm conclusions, these results suggest that the gendered nature of household work has implications for the psychological well-being of both mothers and fathers of preschool children in dual-earner households. However, more longitudinal research and the development of theoretically-informed measures of family work are needed to advance the field.
