内容記述 | The aging of Japanese society combined with a persistently low total fertility rate may threaten Japan’s future economic growth. In response, the government has introduced a revised Child and Family Care Leave Law that seeks to improve work-life balance, assist mothers return to full-time work after maternity leave, provides generous leave benefits to new mothers and fathers, and promotes fathers increased involvement in housework and child care. Like the government, midwives, nurse-midwives, obstetricians, and pediatricians have an interest in increasing husbands’ participation in family work as evidence suggests it reduces birth anxiety and stress for mothers, and may also affect the desire to have more children. This study investigates changes in Japanese men’s participation in family work before and during their wife’s pregnancy and compares husbands’ participation by age. The participants were 157 husbands (mean age 30.7) whose wives were outpatients at maternity clinics or were in hospital due to high-risk pregnancy. The questionnaire assessed husbands’ participation in family work (18 items). Results show that husbands increase housework and child care by 1.0 and 0.5 items, respectively, after pregnancy began, and increase housework by 0.5 items if wives were hospitalized for high-risk pregnancy. There was no significant difference in husband’s housework participation by wives’ employment status. Younger husbands participated in housework less than older husbands’. Results show that traditional gender roles persist in the home, even among younger men and even during high-risk pregnancies. Further studies of the new policies that encourage men’s participation in family work will be needed to assess their long-term effectiveness. |
