abstract: 'Background Understanding the regional differences in child care is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
critical as the gendered division of child care in the family remains
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unequal between husbands and wives in China. Objective The study aims to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assess how child care time is divided differently between husband and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wife within the families in urban and rural sectors, and how these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
divisions are associated with factors such as one''s own or spouse''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment status, educational achievement, and earnings. Method We
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analyzed data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (2004, 2006,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009, and 2011), using the relative resources theory, ``doing gender{''''}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perceptive, as well as the gender attitudes model to explain gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
differentials in child care among urban and rural families. Results The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender difference in child care continues to persist but with a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
variation between urban and rural sectors. In addition to the wife''s own
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment status, the husband''s employment status as well as income has
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
played important roles in influencing the child care division inside the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
household. Conclusions The relative resources theory explains the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pattern of the gendered division of child care in rural sectors but
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cannot account for the patterns in urban sectors. Instead, patterns in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
urban women''s child care time were more consistent with a ``doing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender{''''} perspective and urban men''s child care time were consistent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with an egalitarian gender attitudes model.'
