Research Abstract |
In Japan, men’s small contribution to household chores has been pointed out as one of the causes of low fertility rate. With regard to this issue, the contribution by men is considered to be determined not only by the present condition, but also by the experience in childhood. Thus, this study investigated the determinants of time allocation of children and the effect of past experience on the time allocation of adults. The results show that (1) the experience in childhood affects the time allocation of adults and (2) the involvement of parents, the number of siblings, and the birth order are important for the time allocation of children.
