A major criticism of the American Time Use Survey (ATUS) is that,
with the exception of childcare, the survey does not systematically
collect information about activities respondents did while they
were doing something else. The ATUS focuses on collecting
information about respondents' main (or primary) activities; when
respondents volunteer that they were doing secondary activities,
this information is recorded by the interviewers, but it is not
coded and does not appear in the final data. This study is an
analysis of these additional secondary activity data from 2006. The
study provides descriptive information about who reported secondary
activities and the activities they reported. It also quantifies the
secondary activity time that was spent in nonmarket work and
examines whether the omission of these data impacts valuations of
nonmarket work. Finally, it evaluates the quality of the
voluntarily-reported secondary activity data.
