Abstract

Multivariate analysis is used in a cross-cultural study to determine the relationship between the sexual division of labor in a number of subsistence tasks and the value of children. The results demonstrate that children's work is affected by the adult sexual division of labor. Furthermore, the presence of domesticated animals in a community may increase the value of children. Where large animals are present, men participate in animal husbandry, and boys are highly valued.
