An analysis of the mechanisms.” The paper was published in Review of Economics of the Household on Oct. 11, 2021.

In it, Bullinger and her co-authors discuss how children in low socioeconomic status families are five times more likely to experience maltreatment than those in higher economic statuses. To that end, they examine whether raising the minimum wage could help alleviate these problems.
