Comparing Labor Supply Elasticities in Europe and the US: New Results (2012, result): “This is consistent with, yet not exclusively explained by, the fact that non-market time of European couples is more often associated with household production (see Freeman and Schettkat, 2005), for which male and female non-market time can be considered a substitute.”
