Abstract

Do people turn on those who turn to the courts? Using a survey experiment, we find people have significantly more negative attitudes toward personal injury litigants than other types of claimants, even when they believe the claimant is injured and mostly not at fault. Moreover, our subjects were not anti-claim, anti-hiring a lawyer, or even anti-government program. Instead, they were distinctively anti-litigant.
求助于法院的人:针对人身伤害诉讼人的强烈反对的实验证据
人们会背叛那些诉诸法庭的人吗?通过一项调查实验,我们发现,与其他类型的索赔人相比,人们对人身伤害诉讼当事人的负面态度要高得多,即使他们认为索赔人受到了伤害,而且大多没有过错。此外,我们的研究对象并不是反索赔、反聘请律师,甚至不是反政府项目。相反,他们明显反对诉讼。
