The detailed accounting provided by TUS allows for comprehensive coverage of all activities and enables the documentation of tasks of short duration. Dong and An (2014) examine the gender patterns of time allocation over three activities: paid work, unpaid work and non-work activity (personal care and leisure) and estimates the value of unpaid work. In another study, Qi and Dong (2013) show that working women in China not only spend longer hours on housework than working men, but they are also more likely to have frequent interruptions in their market work, often to perform housework activities, which adversely affect their earnings. It draws from the growing literature on household decisionmaking in developing countries, which recognizes the importance of bargaining in the intra-household allocation of resources, including time.
