Using the German Time Use Surveys 1991/92 and 2001/02, this paper analyses the interactions between the time-use decisions of partners within one household. Thereby, an interdependent model of the partners' times allocated to paid and unpaid work that allows for simultaneity and endogeneity of the time allocation decisions of the spouses is applied. When including both weekdays and weekend days in the analysis, a complementary relationship between the partner's time allocations is found. When restricting the analysis to weekdays, however, men's time dedicated to paid and unpaid work is unaffected by their wives' time-use decisions.

The research purposes are to establish a family lifetime labor supply model with emphasis on human resource adjustment and derive the dynamic properties of optimal time allocation profiles of spouses. A sample of married couples who started their families during the period of years 1976-1979 when age 18-35 and who had children after marriage and before 1988 was selected from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID). The research question whether the human resource adjustment process and the labor supply profiles of married couples vary across levels of education of wives is answered. The empirical results show that family characteristics such as number of children at home, number of relatives who have moved into or out of the home, and the individual spouse's health status affect the opportunity costs of spouses' human resources and, hence, their time allocation over the family life cycle. The major findings are summarized below. First, both the husband and the wife work more hours on their market jobs when they experience higher real hourly wage rates. The effect of wage increases on the market work time allocation is greater for the wife than for the husband. Second, both spouses increase their household production time when there are children aged 1-2 at home. When children grow older, spouses reduce their housework time gradually. However, among more educated spouses who are employed, the wife's housework time displays a U-shaped pattern, whereas the husband's housework time shows an inverted U-shaped pattern with respect to children's ages. Third, the presence of young children under 6 does not affect the market work hours of the less educated husbands. When wives are employed, more educated husbands peak their market work time when children are 3-5 years old. Wives with more than a high school education reduce their market work time when young children under 6 are present at home. Wives with at most a high school education start to increase their market work time as children are older than 3 years old. Fourth, more educated wives can work more time at the market when a relative moves into the home. Wives with less than or a high school education reduce their market work time when the relatives move out of the household. Fifth, husbands reduce both their household production time and market work time if they have more sick hours. Wives with more than a high school education increase household production time when they are sick. Finally, an increase in wage rate reduces individual spouse's marginal utility of wealth, as represented by market work time. For the wife, an increase in the number of relatives moving into the home reduces her evaluation of wealth in terms of market work time. This implies that relatives moving into the home act like an asset to the wife.

In this book, time use behavior within households is modeled as the outcome of a bargaining process between family members who bargain over household resource allocation and the intrafamily distribution of welfare. In view of trends such as rising female employment along with falling fertility rates and increasing divorce rates, a strategic aspect of female employment is analyzed in a dynamic family bargaining framework. The division of housework between spouses and the observed leisure differential between women and men are investigated within non-cooperative bargaining settings. The models developed are tested empirically using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel and the German Time Budget Survey.

Empirical Estimation Results Of A Collective Household Time Allocation Model written by Chris van Klaveren and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014 with categories.
In this paper an empirical model is developed where the collective household model is used as a basic framework to describe the time allocation problem. The collective model views household behavior as the outcome of maximizing a household utility function which is a weighted sum of the utility functions of the male and the female. The empirical research that has been done is mainly focused on testing and refuting the unitary model. Moreover, in the bulk of time allocation literature the main accent still lies on the development of theory. The novelty of this paper is that we empirically estimate the two individual utility functions and the household power weight distribution, which is parameterized per household. The model is estimated on a sub-sample of the British Household Panel Survey, consisting of two-earner households. The empirical results suggest that: (1) Given that the weight distribution is wage dependent, preferences of males and females differ, which rejects the unitary model; (2) the power differences are mainly explained by differences in the ratio of the partners' hourly wages; (3) although there are significant individual variations on average the power distribution in two-earner families is about even; (4) the male tends to be marginally more productive in performing household tasks than the female; (5) the preference for total household production is influenced by family size for the female but not for the male; and (6) both males and females have a backward-bending labor supply curve.

While this book contains numerous facts and empirical findings and touches on policy issues, its main contribution to the existing literature lies in the theoretical perspective it offers. The core of this book is a general equilibrium theory of labor and marriage presented in Chapter 2, which provides the conceptual framework for the rest of the chapters. Two major implications of the theory are sex ratio effects and compensating differentials in marriage. The book demonstrates how a few core concepts, linked via economic analysis, help explain a multitude of findings based on statistical analyses of data from a wide variety of cultures. It is hoped that readers of this book will improve their understanding of how marriage works to help us design better economic and social policies as well as help people live better and happier lives, making the book of interest to not only economists but sociologists and anthropologists as well.
