About me

Hi, I'm Vítor Possebom. Welcome to my website! I am an Assistant Professor at São Paulo School of Economis from Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV-SP). I hold a Ph.D. degree in Economics from Yale University. Currently, my main project is:

• Crime and Mismeasured Punishment: Marginal Treatment Effect with Misclassification

You can find my complete CV here and contact me by e-mail at vitor.possebom@fgv.br. You can also check my Twitter.

My current research interests include Theoretical and Applied Microeconometrics, an area full of amazing questions whose answers, when theoretically grounded and well-identified, can guide policy implementation. Currently, I focus on identification challenges with more than one source of endogeneity, such as problems that combine self-selection into treatment with sample selection or misclassification.

I refereed articles to the Review of Economics and Statistics, the Journal of Econometrics, the Journal of Applied Econometrics, the Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, the Journal of Human Capital, the International Economic Review, the European Journal of Government and Economics, Journal of Institutional and Theoretical Economics, Open Economies Review, Revista Brasileira de Economia, Brazilian Review of Econometrics, EconomiA, and Pesquisa e Planejamento Econômico.
