On Psychology's Endowment Effect (Online)

This week, we will be discussing the psychology of ownership. The developmental psychologist, Jean Piaget observed that humans' sense of ownership arises early in their development. This phenomenon continues throughout our lives into adulthood.

Is the endowment of meaning to objects a distinct human phenomenon? Why do we project more value to the objects that we own or are original than their replicas? Join us for a thoughtful discussion on these questions and more as we watch a video on why we are so attached to our things. Access to the meeting is available via the Discord link.
