The three tables here provide the reader with a snapshot of ‘‘an average week in the life’’of the usual working-aged population between 18 and 64 years in 23 countries (see the methodological notes at the end for two slight exceptions to the age range). Table 1 covers the 168 h weekly hours for people of both sexes, Table 2 covers the weekly hours for women only, while Table 3 covers men. All three tables cover weekly hours spent on 31 activities (and a subtotal for free time) that are grouped in four broad categories: paid work and education; household, family and social care; sleep and other personal care; and free time. Parallel tables for percent participating in these activities and average time per participant, along with weekday and weekend day differences, can be found in the technical paper version of this publication on http://www. timeuse. org/research/technicalpapers. Some observations drawn in this technical paper that are not displayed in Tables 1–3 are highlighted in italics in the text below. Readers should interpret these data cautiously since some national differences may reflect cultural differences in reporting or coding procedures rather than actual behavior. These tables update, expand and supersede the parallel Tables 1–3 for 18 countries reported in Fisher and Robinson (2009)—again see the methodological notes at the end for further comment, as well for information on year (s) of data collection and sample sizes. These country-level diary data generally average daily activities across a year by collecting random-day diaries from large samples of working-age people on all days of the week and all weeks of the year. All individuals occasionally experience unusual days, but the rate of unusual days across the population will be captured by this methodology. Numerous cultural, technological and social constraints affect these diary accounts,
