This study estimates the total lifetime contribution of the wife to the family, given various patterns of labor force participation, and finds it to increase considerably as her labor force participation increases. This helps to explain the rapid influx of women into the labor market. It is also suggested, however, that the continued heavy commitment to housework, especially during the child-rearing years, remains a barrier to equality in the labor market
