FORTY TASKS FOR QUARANTINE: CHILDHOOD AND HOMEWORK DURING CONFINEMENT

Abstract

Based on the data collected by the Confined Childhood study, that measures the perception that Spanish child population has about the academic tasks during the confinement, its implications related to social inequality and vulnerability are shown. We verify, through logistic regression analysis, that academic homework could have constituted a burden for a significant part of children; in particular, for those who show lower life satisfaction and worse health status, who perceive the family economic fragility, and lived the confinement with parents who dedicated less time to them.
