ALARCON-GARCIA, Gloria; QUINONES-VIDAL, Elena  and  SANCHEZ-MECA, Julio. How can have an influence to be a housewive on women's fiscal awareness?: the case of Spain. Anal. Psicol. [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.3, pp.952-961. ISSN 1695-2294.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/analesps.31.3.194961.

The authors analyze the Spanish fiscal awareness through citizens' perception on the tax system. A questionnaire is used for exploring the most influential factors: knowledge of the system, acceptance of fraud, use of social benefits without adequate compensation, and satisfaction and confidence in institutions. Once the contingency table is built and the strength of the statistical significance is analyzed - by Cramer's V coefficient - binary logistic regression models, multinomial logistic regression and ordinal regression are applied. Educational level and employment status were taken as covariates, demonstrating the lack of statistical significance of gender in tax awareness. There are significant differences between men, women and the group of housewives. These women show lower levels of fiscal awareness, a greater lack of knowledge about the system, more acceptance of fraud, more dissatisfaction with administrations and further distrust towards their fellow citizens.

Keywords : unpaid work; fiscal awareness; housewives; gender; fiscal fraud.
