Sažetak
This paper aims to explore the gender dimensions of the favored mutual activities of men and women and to investigate the link between those activities and the socioeconomic and sociocultural factors in Croatian households. Also taking into consideration the gender differences concerning the most enjoyed things done together and the different attributes of households whose members prefer certain types of activities to others, we hold that the detailed exploration of (scarcely researched) activities done together can help clarify the gender relations in Croatia. The study is based on the analysis of representative survey data on gender relations collected in Croatia at the beginning of 2018, within the Croatian Science Foundation supported project on gender modernization (GENMOD HRZZ-IP-2016-06-6010). As the main unit of analysis lies at the intersection of the individuals (partners) and the household, the survey was constructed to measure a multitude of household characteristics, which were derived from the individual characteristics of each member of the household. This enabled us to combine individual household members and their interactions into a coherent whole and thus address the context in which the mutual activities are embedded. As the part of the analyses, the multinomial logistic regression analysis has been used to determine whether employment and income level, among the confounding socioeconomic and sociocultural factors, can explain different patterns of partners' favored activities done together, such as travelling, cooking, housework, or recreational activities. The preliminary results of the analyses indicate consistent differences among household types constructed by intersecting employment status and income of partners, concerning frequency and the pattern of most enjoyed things done together.
