It explores whether the variations in the total time worked by women and men, and, particularly, the gender gap unfavorable to women, can be explained by substantive national differences in gendered social norms. Using data from the World Values Survey (WVS; 2010–14), this study computes a gender norms index to measure cross-country differences in gender norms. It finds that more egalitarian countries exhibit higher levels of equality in the gendered distribution of total work.2018http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/7577210.1080/13545701.2017.1390320http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/75772oai:zaguan.unizar.es:75772FEMINIST ECONOMICS 24, 1 (2018), 35-62All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
