English to Spanish: Maternal employment and time investments in children General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Economics
Source text - English Abstract We use data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and the American Time Use Survey to estimate the effect of maternal employment on time spent with children. We find that each additional 10 h of maternal work reduces mother–child quality time interaction by about 7.5 % and time reading together by 8 %. This relationship between work and quality time does not vary much based on mothers’ education and is robust to the inclusion of family or child fixed effects. There is no evidence that fathers or other relatives fill the gap in time investments due to maternal employment.
Translation - Spanish Resumen Hemos usado información del Estudio de Panel de Dinámicas de Ingresos (PSID) y de la Encuesta Estadounidense de Uso del Tiempo (ATUS) para estimar el efecto que causa la empleabilidad materna en el tiempo invertido en la crianza de los hijos. Encontramos que por cada 10 horas de trabajo fuera del hogar, el tiempo de calidad entre madre e hijo se redujo a un 7.5% y el tiempo de lectura a un 8%. La relación entre el trabajo y el tiempo de calidad de madre e hijo no varía según el nivel educativo de las madres, la inclusión de otros miembros de la familia y el uso de características no elegidas al azar de los hijos. No existe evidencia de que los padres u otros familiares puedan subsanar la deficiencia de tiempo de calidad perdido por las madres que trabajan.
