This article uses data from the 1989 National Long-Term Care Survey and its companion Informal Caregivers Survey to investigate how the employment of female primary caregivers (FPCGs) affects hours of care received by disabled elderly care recipients (CRs). Multivariage analyses controlling for key FPCG and CR characteristics indicate that when FPCGs are employed they provide significantly fewer hours of care personally; however, their CRs also receive significantly more hours of help from other sources. When FPCGs work more than 17 hours per week, their CRs receive significantly fewer total weekly hours of care than would otherwise be the case.
本文使用了1989年全国长期护理调查及其配套的非正式护理人员调查的数据，以研究女性主要护理人员（FPCG）的就业情况如何影响残疾老年护理对象（CR）获得的护理时长。对关键的FPCG和CR特征进行控制的多变量分析表明，当FPCG受雇时，她们亲自提供的护理时长显著减少；然而，她们的CR从其他来源获得的帮助时长也显著增加。当FPCG每周工作超过17小时时，她们的CR每周获得的总护理时长比其他情况显著减少。
