关于男女医生花在家庭活动和儿童保育上的时间差异的数据有限，这可能会影响专业工作时间的性别差异。我们利用美国时间使用调查（由美国人口普查局进行的一项详细的时间使用调查），研究了 2003 年至 2016 年已婚医生在家庭活动（例如清洁和烹饪）和儿童保育（例如洗澡和家庭作业）上花费的时间的性别差异。总体而言，我们发现有孩子的女医生每天花在家庭活动和照顾孩子上的时间比男医生多 100.2 分钟（95% CI，67.0-133.3 分钟），在调整配偶双方外出工作时间后，这一发现在性质上相似。这些模式可能反映了最终影响医生专业工作时间的性别差异的社会规范。 (C) 2018 梅奥医学教育与研究基金会
Limited data exist on differences in time spent on household activities and child care between male and female physicians, which may influence sex differences in hours worked professionally. We studied sex differences among married physicians in time spent on household activities (eg, cleaning and cooking) and child care (eg, bathing and homework) from 2003 through 2016 using the American Time Use Survey, a detailed time use survey administered by the US Census. Overall, we found that female physicians with children spent 100.2 minutes (95% CI, 67.0-133.3 minutes) more per day on household activities and child care than did male physicians, a finding that was qualitatively similar after adjustment for work hours outside the home of both spouses. These patterns may reflect societal norms that ultimately influence physician sex differences in hours worked professionally. (C) 2018 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research
