Professor John Winters published in the most recent issue of the Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association. Winters authored the article "Minimum wages and restaurant employment for teens and adults in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas," which estimates effects of minimum wages on individual restaurant employment using the 2005–2019 Current Population Survey and a two-way fixed effects regression model. The results indicate that minimum wages on average decrease restaurant employment for teens and increase restaurant employment for adults with less than an associate's degree.
