第二節 未來方向及建議

本研究探討美國各州職業結構差異對於父母照顧小孩時間影響之議 題，並分析其兩者的相關性，然而因樣本資料取得的限制之下，針對實證 結果提供下列建議：

1. 其他時間分配的趨勢

在此，本研究只針對勞力密集程度差異影響父母照顧小孩的時間作分 析，然而根據 U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 的統計資料，可發現近幾十年 來，美國人民於其他時間分配方面也有一些明顯的趨勢，例如：休閒活動 增加，做家事時間減少等。故還可針對這方面的時間分配進行探討，以得 到更完整的研究。

2. 可看其他國家是否有同樣的趨勢

本文只針對美國父母照顧小孩的時間進行討論，還可類比先前論及父 母照顧小孩時間的相關文獻，針對其他國家進行研究，探討產業結構差異 的影響，並與美國作比較。
