This article is predicated on the idea that most studies on minimum wage ignore important interactions between, schooling, employment, and the minimum wage. To study these interactions and relationships Mr. Wascher creates a conditional logit model of employment and enrollment outcomes for teenagers using datat from 1977 to 1989. Overall the study found that minimum wages had a negative effect on school enrollment and a negative effect on the portion of teenagers neither in school nor employed.
