For this purpose, 109 housework research studies were analyzed according to the themes, published years, the subjects and the research methods. The major findings of this study were as follows. The research on the evaluation of the value of housework was the theme most frequently studied, followed by research on the socialization of housework, housework time, the attitudes on and satisfaction with housework, and the division of housework, in that order. During the periods of 1990-2000 years, housework studies had increased, but since then have slowly decreased. The majority of respondents to housework studies were married women. With respect to employment status of the subjects, both employed and unemployed people were sampled in half of the studies. The sample size was over 300 in almost half of the research reviewed. The most frequently used research method was the surveys using questionnaires. Descriptive statistics, one way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis were the statistical methods used most frequently.
