abstract: 'Background: Common mental disorders are among the leading contributors

  to the burden of disease in Chile and Latin America. Gender and

  socioeconomic position are important social determinants of mental

  health.

  Objective: This study is aimed at determining the role of the double

  burden of paid job and unpaid domestic work in the association of social

  determinants with common mental disorders.

  Methods: Secondary analyses of a sample representative of the employed

  or recently employed Chilean population between 2009-2010. Logistic

  models were used to determine the association between the variables of

  interest and positive screen for common mental disorders.

  Results: Positive screen for common mental disorders was two times as

  frequent in women, compared to men, but the association between gender

  and the outcome was not observed when controlling for the double burden

  of paid and unpaid work. Income was associated with common mental

  disorders only among men.

  Conclusions: The distribution of the double burden of paid and unpaid

  work, which is more frequent among women, could contribute to the higher

  frequency of common mental disorders among them. It is important that

  social and labor public policies address this issue, to reduce the gap

  experienced by women with respect to paid work, and to foster

  co-responsibility in domestic and care tasks.'
