| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examines work-family conflict of the wives in dual career couples. The wives are in condition to time bind if they are going to meet both domestic demand and demand of the work. It is necessary for them to take a strategy of the work-family fit. Furthermore, this study examines the frequency of husbands' participation of housework and child care. the frequency of husbands' participation in some tasks easily substitutable such as washing dishes, cleaning up after meals, and care of the bathing of the children, is negatively correlated to the wives’ frequency. However, in terms of activities to play and to talk with children, there is no correlation between husbands' and wives’ frequencies. Husbands’ long working hours are negatively related to the husbands’ participation in time-consuming and less postponable tasks; such as child care, meal preparation and cooking.
