The regression table examines factors influencing daily housework hours for women and men, highlighting key findings: - **Female Interviewer:** Women spend more time on housework with a female interviewer, increasing the gender gap. - **Paid Work Time:** More paid work reduces housework time for both genders, more so for men. - **Income:** Higher income correlates with less housework for both. - **Marital Status:** Married women do more housework; married men do less. - **Children:** Having children increases housework for both, with significant effects across all child age groups. - **Interview Length:** Longer interviews slightly increase men's housework time. The model explains 16.7% of the variance for women and 9.09% for men, based on 18,965 individuals and 110,544 observations. (Summarized by mistral)
