Reference population values and shares are drawn from the nationally representative Time Use Survey 2013 implemented by the National Statistics Office in Argentina (INDEC). Low (high) income families are those belonging to the lowest (upper) two quintiles of the national income distribution. Income quintiles were defined according to the Argentinean Time Use Survey. Time use questions of the National Survey are slightly different from time use questions in our survey in terms of activities included and the typical day of reference (see https://www.indec.gob.ar/ftp/cuadros/menusuperior/tnr/Cuestionario_TNR.pdf).
