Abstract:
This study reviews previous research on labor supply and demand wage responsiveness. A meta-analysis of estimated demand wage elasticities was conducted to better understand any systematic factors that influence such estimates. Factors studied include short versus long run response, family versus hired labor, functional form, time span of the study.
