Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary Recent research shows important racial-ethnic differences in how individuals spend time in housework. Yet, our understanding of how the racial-ethnic makeup of couples shapes gender equality in the division of housework remains limited. We use couple-level data from the 2017-2019 waves of the Panel Study of Income Dynamics to visually illustrate how each partner’s race-ethnicity and their combination are associated with the gender division of housework in Black, Hispanic, and white individuals. Results show significant heterogeneity in the share of housework and total housework hours between racial-ethnic groups, underscoring the need for a couple-level understanding of how the racial-ethnic makeup of couples may shape the gender division of housework.
