New study with @DanielCarlson_1 looking at trajectories of parents' divisions of housework and childcare from March 2020-October 2023 in @DemographicRes. Divisions of domestic labor were stable for most parents, but shifts to nontraditional divisions of childcare also notable.

In this paper, @pettsric & @DanielCarlson_1 identify patterns of divisions of domestic labor during the pandemic. Divisions of labor were stable for most, but more couples shifted to nontraditional divisions of childcare vs. traditional.
