Who Does the Housework?
Vierling-Claassen, Angela
College Mathematics Journal, v41 n4 p298-302 Sep 2010
Ever had a roommate? Then you know that it can be difficult to share housekeeping duties. This article uses game theory to analyze situations in which there is a task to be done and two people who might do it. We then use our analysis to consider what game theory tells us about the gendered division of household labor.
