Research Abstract

This study aims at considering the difference between the life-style of unemployed wives and that of employed wives residing in west suburbs of Tokyo. Aguestionnaire survey of social time and social space in one holiday (Jan. 23, 2000) and one weekday (Jan. 24, 2000) was conducted awong 142 households in Kohoku New Town, Yokohama. The attributes of surveyed households are as follows: marride couples with highly school career form nuclear families, who have migrated from Yokohama, Kawasaki and 23 wards of Tokyo in 5 years. Compared with the unemployed wives, the employed wives who spend a third of daily hours on working and commuting spqre less time for domestic duties and/or childrearing. One of the major difference from the survey for Tama New Town (Sugiura and Miyazawa, 2001) is a fact that sleeping hours of both unemployed and employed wives are as longer as 20 minutes in Kohoku New Town This is because shorter commuting time of the husbands in Kohoku New Town might contribute to their wive's later turnout. Sixty percent of the employed wives work in local places of Tsuzuki and Aoba Wards and are engaged in white and gray collar works chiefly as part-time worker. Nearly most of the wives had formerly worred as full-time worker. Seventy persent of them retired from office with marriage and parturition as a momentum.
