TIME SPENT BY PEOPLE IN DIFFERENT LIVING SITUATIONS
The amount of free time available to a person depended on the type of household to which they belonged. Family and household types are classified into categories as detailed in the Glossary published in the Time Use Survey: User Guide, 2006 (cat. no. 4150.0).
Dependent children (all persons aged 15 years and under or aged 15-24 years and in full-time study with a parent living in the same household) spent the most time (28 minutes a day) on sport and outdoor activities. This was followed by people in a couple family with no children (24 minutes). Parents with dependent children spent the least amount of time on sport and outdoor activities (16 minutes).
