Reservation Wages and Their Labor Market Effects for Black and White Male Youth.
Holzer, Harry J.
Journal of Human Resources, v21 n2 p157-77 Spr 1986
This article presents an empirical analysis of self-reported reservation wages for unemployed young Black and White males. Results show that young Blacks seek wages that are comparable to those of young Whites in absolute terms but that are higher relative to what is available on the demand side of the market.
