Abstract

Using Spanish data I test whether there is a different pattern of intra-household distribution between two types of families: on the one hand, families with both spouses in full time employment and, on the other hand, families with the husband in full time employment and the wife being outside the labor market. Significant differences are found in such a pattern and some of its features are identified and estimated.
