| Resum: |
Population aging requires understanding the implications of eldercare. Using American Time Use Surveys, we find caregivers spend less time on personal care, social activities/sports, and more on housework, than individuals who do not provide any eldercare. They also report higher stress and lower happiness. In addition, caregivers may not provide care every day, but on days they do, they also spend more time on housework and less on paid work, and report higher levels of sadness than on days they do not provide care. Regular caregivers experience worse well-being than non-caregivers, but also experience additional strain on days they provide care. |
