Human Capital and Economic Opportunity: A Global Working Group

Pamela Giustinelli

Survey Research Center (ISR) University of Michigan
Faculty Research Fellow

Pamela Giustinelli received a Ph.D. in Economics from Northwestern University in 2010, and currently holds a position as Faculty Research Fellow at the Survey Research Center (Institute for Social Research) of the University of Michigan. Her primary interests lie in quantitative policy research on decision making under uncertainty with individual and multiple decision makers, especially educational choices and child-parent interactions (e.g., beliefs' transmission and preferences' formation via socialization). She also has a strong interrelated interest in the areas of survey design and data collection, and aims with her research at analyzing and developing methods to elicit decision processes and their components in formats that can be easily integrated in econometric models of individual and group behaviors, thereby aiding structural policy-oriented analyses of such behaviors.
