Abstract

Objectives: Studies on fathers’ childcare time in the Republic of Korea are increasing in number. This article examines if and how economic dependence and gender-role ideology are related to childcare time spent by fathers. In particular, we pay attention to fathers’ childcare time by children’s age. Methods: We have drawn a sample of married men aged between 20 and 54 with children aged 17 or below (N=3,125) from the Korean Time Use Survey in 2014. We ran a hierarchical multiple regression analysis using SPSS 25 to analyze childcare time of fathers with children of up to nine years of age and fathers of children aged at least ten years old. Results: We found that fathers’ progressive gender-role ideology increased childcare time spent by all fathers. Fathers’ economic bargaining power increased childcare time spent by fathers with older children. By contrast, there was no relationship between economic dependence and minutes of childcare spent by fathers with younger children. Conclusions: We contribute to the understanding of Korean fathers’ childcare and discuss the effects of economic bargaining power between the two groups of fathers.

Method: Data from 300 working mothers were analyzed. Results: Cluster analysis revealed three subgroups of working mothers; positive type, negative type, and ambivalence type of the perception about their roles. Cluster 1 ‘positive type’ was characterized as having high positive perception of a mother’s role, and average level professional role with low negative perceptions for their roles. They showed the highest life satisfaction, multi-role efficacy, social support, and the lowest depression and multi-role stress. Cluster 2 ‘negative type’ showed very low positive perception and high negative perception of their roles. They had the lowest life satisfaction, multi-role efficacy, social support, and the highest depression and multi-role stress. Cluster 3 ‘ambivalence type’ showed both high positive and negative perception of their roles at the same time. Their life satisfaction level is moderate with high multi-role efficacy, depression, multi-role stress, and high social support.

Method: Data were collected from 400 unmarried men and women aged 25 and under 35 who lived in Busan, Daegu, and Gyeongsang Province.

Results: First, unmarried men had higher spouse relationship-oriented attitudes toward marriage, traditional attitudes toward marriage, attitudes toward children, marriage intentions, and family strengths than unmarried women. Unmarried women had higher self-oriented attitudes toward marriage than unmarried men. Second, unmarried men and women were categorized as three types. Unmarried men categorized as ‘marriage-child birth centered’ and ‘spouse relationship centered’ have higher marriage intentions than ‘self-centered’ type men. Also, ‘marriage-child birth centered’ men have higher family strengths than ‘self-centered’ men. For unmarried women, ‘marriage-child birth centered’ and ‘neutral attitude’ types women have higher marriage intentions and family strengths than ‘self-immersion’ type women.
