51. Les conséquences financières du départ du foyer parental. Une analyse longitudinale des données du Panel suisse de ménages.

Author

Wernli, Boris and Henchoz, Caroline

Abstract

In Switzerland, residential independence under the age of 30 usually results in a decrease of the income at disposal. Nevertheless, both, financial management capability and satisfaction with the financial situation remain stable. The latter even increases for those youth coming from low-income households. Following Elder's life course theory (1998), we explain these results in terms of the effects of context, temporality, "linked lives," and individual capacities to apply an order of priorities on economic acts.

Abstract

Studies of the gender division of housework show that women spend more time on domestic tasks than men, and that the gender gap widens following entry into union and the birth of children. But what happens after a relationship ends? Do women spend less time on housework if they no longer have a man to look after? And are men obliged to devote more time to such tasks? Using individual data from eleven successive waves of the Swiss Household Panel, Boris WERNLI and Caroline HENCHOZ analyse changes in the amount of time devoted to basic household tasks (washing, cooking, cleaning) by men and women in the year following the end of a conjugal relationship. For comparable characteristics, women whose partnership has ended spend less time on housework, refl ecting a certain reversibility of the effect of union formation. By contrast, union dissolution does not have such a clear impact on men's investment in housework, which increases only for the pivot generations (persons born between 1935 and 1954) and among men in the younger generations who go from family life to living alone.

Abstract

Introduction Optimal medication management is one of the basic conditions necessary for home-dwelling older adults living with multiple chronic conditions (OAMCC) to be able to remain at home and preserve their quality of life. Currently, the reasons for such high numbers of emergency department visits and the very significant rate of hospitalisations for OAMCC, due to medication-related problems (MRPs), is poorly explored. This study aims to reveal the current state of the medication management practices of polymedicated, home-dwelling OAMCC and to make proposals for improving clinical and medication pathways through an innovative and integrated model for supporting medication management and preventing adverse health outcomes. Methods and analysis A mixed-methods study will address the medication management of polymedicated, home-dwelling OAMCC. Its explanatory sequential design will involve two major phases conducted sequentially over time. The quantitative phase will consist of retrospectively exploiting the last 5 years of electronic patient records from a local hospital (N ≈ 50 000) in order to identify the different profiles—made up of patient-related, medication-related and environment-related factors—of the polymedicated, home-dwelling OAMCC at risk of hospitalisation, emergency department visits, hospital readmission (notably for MRPs), institutionalisation or early death. The qualitative study will involve: (a) obtaining and understanding the medication management practices and experiences of the identified profiles extracted from the hospital data of OAMCC who will be interviewed at home (N ≈ 30); (b) collecting and analysing the perspectives of the formal and informal caregivers involved in medication management at home in order to cross-reference perspectives about this important dimension of care at home. Finally, the mixed-methods findings will enable the development of an innovative, integrated model of medication management based on the Agency for Clinical Innovation framework and Bodenheimer and Sinsky’s quadruple aim. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval has been obtained from the Human Research Ethics Committee of the Canton Vaud (2018-02196). Findings will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals, professional conferences and other knowledge transfer activities with primary healthcare providers, hospital care units, informal caregivers’ and patients’ associations.

58. Fin de l'union conjugale, genre et tâches ménagères en Suisse

Author

Wernli, Boris, Henchoz, Caroline, Wernli, Boris, and Henchoz, Caroline

Abstract

Les analyses longitudinales, qui suivent un même individu dans le temps, sont rares et portent essentiellement sur l’évolution de la répartition des tâches domestiques entre les conjoints. Elles soulignent l’accroissement du temps que les femmes consacrent aux tâches ménagères lors de la constitution du couple et de la famille, mais elles ne disent pas si ce phénomène est réversible. Observe-t-on l’inverse à la fin de l’union ? Qu’en est-il des hommes ? L’analyse longitudinale des données du Panel suisse de ménages (PSM), recueillies entre 1999 et 2009, montre que la fin de l’union conjugale (par séparation ou décès) entraîne une diminution du temps que les femmes consacrent aux tâches ménagères, alors qu’elle a peu d’effet sur l’investissement des hommes. La discussion des différents facteurs expliquant ces résultats nous amène à nuancer la portée explicative de la théorie du doing gender, largement mobilisée dans les études sur la répartition des tâches domestiques au sein du couple. Cette théorie semble plus appropriée pour décrire le comportement des femmes que celui des hommes. L’implication ménagère de ces derniers semble, en effet, moins dépendre des personnes avec lesquelles ils sont en interaction que de facteurs culturels comme les références normatives en matière de répartition et d’investissement ménager propres à chaque génération.
