In this context, one of the most common choices is between monetary remedies and in-kind remedies. In reality, monetary compensation is the most common form of redress for rights violations. This chapter questions the conventional wisdom that people are ordinarily indifferent between monetary and nonmonetary remedies, focusing on remedies relating to property. There is experimental evidence that people prefer in-kind remedies to monetary ones, even when the remedy concerns nonunique and easily replaceable assets. The chapter applies the psychological insights to remedies for wrongful interference with property, and to land use planning and expropriation of property.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116055669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chapter describes how some aspects of property law, such as standardized forms of property (e.g., fee simple ownership, leasing) may reduce information-processing costs and enhance understanding of transactions. Yet other laws, such as property defect disclosure, fail to respond to buyers who struggle to process, update, and price complex, late-coming information and sellers who are subject to motivated reasoning and tendencies toward deception. The chapter also considers emerging psychological evidence on conflicts of interest that calls into question the prevailing approach of allowing dual agency by brokers (i.e., representing both buyer and seller).","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132239545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chapter summarizes the debate regarding the choice between property rules and liability rules, and its underlying assumptions. It then shows how behavioral studies offer important considerations that should influence the legal discussion. Generally speaking, psychological studies invite more optimism about people's ability to reach mutual agreement under property rules and suggest that miscalculations of damages under liability rules may be a graver danger than presently realized. These studies caution us against increasing the use of liability rules and lend additional support to the use of property rules when transaction costs are low.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126837239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to this pattern in property law, the empirical psychology research on homes suggests only moderate psychological importance to maintaining ownership of one’s particular home, and substantial attachments and psychological interests in personal and commercial property. From the perspective of psychological loss, the strong property protection afforded to homes under tenancy by the entirety and homestead exemptions may be outsized. Conversely, the more limited protection of personal property and compensation for its loss under laws such as bankruptcy exemptions and bailment may be inadequate.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122868355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, it describes how psychology research on the effect of perceived social norms on prejudice lends support to a controversial provision of the US Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discriminatory housing advertisements and statements. Third, the chapter discusses how psychology research can inform, and ameliorate, exclusion and discrimination in neighborhood and block associations charged with budgeting, zoning, or spending powers.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125518674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This part of the book describes future directions, and challenges, for psychology-informed property law and highlights productive areas of further psychology research. Key areas for future research include more applied research of people engaged in property conflicts, transactions, litigation, and other real-world contexts of property law and experiments investigating whether there are cultural differences in perceptions of property rights, valuation, and remedies. Other fruitful areas for future research include psychological perceptions of ownership, possession, and dispossession and conflicts between owners and possessors, factors affecting complaints and reporting of housing discrimination, and research replicating and expanding the empirical work on psychological preferences for remedies.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122206221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It then addresses the major legal debate regarding the method that should be used to redistribute welfare. There is much controversy in the literature as to whether redistribution should be attained solely through taxes and transfer payments (such as progressive taxation and cash assistance to needy families) or also via substantive rules of private law, including property law. The chapter shows how various behavioral phenomena support the use of private law rules alongside taxes and monetary transfers, with applications to two central property law issues: the choice of a family property system and compensation for takings of land.","PeriodicalId":205822,"journal":{"name":"The Psychology of Property Law","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121738247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It shows that current compensation rules unjustifiably distinguish between different types of injuries to property, and that the risk of systematic undercompensation of property owners is more severe than commonly realized.
