The aim of this study is to analyze the determinants of the probability of underreporting crimes against property in Brazil. To this end, the victim’s decision process was modeled on whether or not to register victimization with the police, based on the hypothesis of economic rationality through information from the 2009 National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) of 2009. To achieve this goal, two Probit models were estimated, one for thefts and the other for robberies, finding evidence that some socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of the victim, such as age, education, income and region of residence determine his decision to register the crime or not.
