这项研究调查了配偶双方的就业/退休状况如何影响配偶双方对传统上男性和女性的家务劳动的贡献，以及夫妻双方的家务分工。基于全国家庭和家庭调查(N=672)的一个子样本的结果表明，比之前的研究建议的模式更复杂。具体地说，就业/退休状况对家务的影响因性别和领域以及妻子的工作历史而异。与双职工夫妇相比，退休妻子花在“女性”家务上的时间更多，而丈夫花在“女性”家务上的时间更少。如果丈夫退休，妻子有工作，丈夫对“男性”任务的贡献最高，如果丈夫有工作，妻子退休，丈夫对“男性”任务的贡献最低。家庭主妇的退休丈夫比家庭主妇的受雇丈夫花更多的时间做男性和女性的家务，而丈夫退休的家庭主妇比丈夫有工作的家庭主妇对女性家务的贡献更少。
This study investigates how the employment/retirement status of both spouses impinges on each spouse's contributions to traditionally male and female household chores as well as on the couple's division of household labor. Results based on a subsample of the National Survey of Families and Households (N= 672) indicate more complex patterns than those suggested by previous research. Specifically, employment/retirement status effects on housework vary by gender and domain, as well as by wife's work history. Compared to dual-earner couples, retired wives spend more and their husbands less time on “female” chores. Husbands' contributions to “male” tasks are highest if they are retired and their wives employed, and lowest if the husband is employed and the wife retired. Retired husbands of housewives spend more time with both male and female chores than employed husbands of housewives, whereas housewives whose husbands are retired contribute less to female chores than housewives whose husbands are employed.
