Impact of the input of women's working hours on household non-economic welfare.
Article in BMC public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe economic functions of families are strengthened by the labor supply of family members. However, an in-depth discussion can still be held on the impact of the labor supply of family members on the non-economic functions of families, such as residential, social and psychological functions. This paper sought to understand the household non-economic welfare of women's working hours. In addition, the household non-economic welfare effects of women's working hours in terms of subdividing women's working hours and fine-tuning household non-economic welfare were explored. The residential, social and psychological effects of women's working hours were clarified.
methodThis paper addressed the above problems based on Sen's welfare theory and Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, adopted the feasible ability method, and used nationally representative, timely survey data and data from the 2014-2018 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS).
resultsIn this study, it was shown that the psychological effects of women's working hours are the largest on average, with an average increase of one hour per week boosting psychological effects by 0.53%. The impact of women's working hours on both residential and social effects has the extreme points of 68.78 and 35.89 h, respectively. By the interval, the residential effects of women's working hours are 12.7-16.2% compared with those of weekly working hours shorter than 30 h. Additionally, women's weekly working hours of more than 60 h have the greatest impact on residential effects, which is 16.2%. From the perspective of gender, the residential effects of women's working hours are above those of men's working hours. Compared to weekly working hours of less than 30 h, the social and psychological effects of women's working hours are weaker than those of men's working hours.
conclusionsThis study not only contributes to the understanding of contributions to households from the perspective of labor value but also provides lessons for enhancing household non-economic welfare. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE LITERATURE: Limited evidence shows the contributions of working hours and healthy family development in social policies.Women's working hours increase the residential, social and psychological effects of families. Psychological effects are the largest, with an average increase of one hour per week being associated with an increase of 0.53% in psychological effects. The impact of women's working hours on subjective health is lower than that of men's working hours.Few studies systematically analyze the impact of women's working hours on family residence, socialization and subjective health, and thus target family-friendly policies.
