Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore gender differences in time use and time famine of one-person households, compared with multi-person households of full-time paid unmarried workers, and to investigate the determinants of time famine. To achieve such research objectives, the raw data from the 2014 Time Use Survey conducted by the Korea national Statistical Office were used for the research. The analytical methods used in this research were chi-square, t-test, and logistic regression. The results of the research are as follows. Firstly, in both the one-person and multi-person households females spend a significantly longer amount of time on necessary and household work and less time on work and leisure than do males. Secondly, female one-person households spend a significantly longer amount of time on household work and less time on leisure than do male multi-person households. Thirdly, female multi-person households showed the highest level of time famine. Lastly, the working hours, nonworking days, and status of workers were identified as determinants of time famine in both one-person and multi-person unmarried households.
