Abstract: Research on health and time use has primarily focused on the total time individuals spend in particular activities such as sleeping. However, as research on sleep and night workers demonstrates when such activities occur and how they are incorporated into individuals’ lives may be related to health in important ways. In this analysis we apply an innovative method to time diary data that allows us to consider this alternative perspective. We draw on the 2014 American Time Use Survey to investigate the relationship between daily temporal pathways and indicators of health. We begin by using multinomial logit latent class analysis to identify daily temporal pathways that characterize how individuals organize their time. Preliminary results show that the temporal pathways are dominated by work and passive leisure. Next steps will include fine tuning our measures of physical activity and investigating how temporal pathways are associated with health.
