The actual time fathers spend in childcare has not increased much in spite of recent attention paid to nurturing their children and changes in the fathers' role. In this study, parenting time is measured by time spent in childcare, shared housework, and shared leisure. In this way, this study seeks to analyze trends in fathers' time spent with children and the factors that influence fathers' participation in parenting. The data source for this study was the 2009 Korean Time Use Survey. The main results of this research are as follows: First, when measuring childcare time as a primary activity, fathers' time spent in parenting averaged 17 minutes on weekdays and 32 minutes on Sundays. This extended to 44 minutes on weekdays and 166 minutes on Sundays when including the secondary childcare time and the shared time with their children while doing housework or leisure. Second, fathers' probability of participating in childcare was higher for fathers who had shorter working hours, younger children, higher spouse average monthly income, and a college or higher education level. The variable that influenced fathers' participation in shared housework on weekdays was working hours. On Sundays, the variables were working hours, age of the youngest child, and the type of occupation. Fathers' participation in shared leisure was influenced by father's working hours, number of children, age of the youngest child, and type of occupation on weekdays. On Sundays, it was influenced by working hours and the age of the youngest child.

아버지의 역할과 자녀양육에 관한 연구의 증가는 현대사회의 가족구조 변화, 특히 여성의 취업과 핵가족화에 의한 것으로 볼 수 있다. 먼저 여성의 취업, 특히 영유아나 아동을 가진 어머니의 취업이 증가하면서 돌봄노동의 공백, 가정기능의 약화, 기혼취업여성의 이중부담 등의 문제가 지속적으로 제기되게 되었다. 즉 가정내에서 자녀양육과 가사노동을 수행할 사람이 부족해짐에 따라 이를 함께할 사람으로서 배우자의 역할 공유가 절실하게 되었고, 배우자가 육아나 가사에 더욱 참여해서 가정내 지지 시스템 만들기를 요구하기 시작했다.
아버지의 역할과 자녀양육에 관한 연구가 증가한 이유는?
아버지의 역할과 자녀양육에 관한 연구의 증가는 현대사회의 가족구조 변화, 특히 여성의 취업과 핵가족화에 의한 것으로 볼 수 있다. 먼저 여성의 취업, 특히 영유아나 아동을 가진 어머니의 취업이 증가하면서 돌봄노동의 공백, 가정기능의 약화, 기혼취업여성의 이중부담 등의 문제가 지속적으로 제기되게 되었다.
여성의 취업이 증가하면서 생겨난 현상은?
먼저 여성의 취업, 특히 영유아나 아동을 가진 어머니의 취업이 증가하면서 돌봄노동의 공백, 가정기능의 약화, 기혼취업여성의 이중부담 등의 문제가 지속적으로 제기되게 되었다. 즉 가정내에서 자녀양육과 가사노동을 수행할 사람이 부족해짐에 따라 이를 함께할 사람으로서 배우자의 역할 공유가 절실하게 되었고, 배우자가 육아나 가사에 더욱 참여해서 가정내 지지 시스템 만들기를 요구하기 시작했다. 또한 핵가족화에 따른 가족 규모의 축소 역시 배우자인 남편의 자녀양육 분담과 참여에 대한 요구를 증대시켰다. 이와 함께 저출산현상에 의한 자녀수 감소는 자녀양육시간의 감소를 예상하게 하지만, 실제 분석결과에 의하면 부모의 자녀양육시간은 별다른 차이가 없고 오히려 자녀 한 명에게 더 많은 시간을 집중하는 경향을 보인다.
