Law (property and equity)

A mortgagor's equitable right to recover pledged land

In English property law, the equity of redemption is the mortgagor's right in equity to recover the mortgaged property by discharging the debt, even after the legal date fixed for repayment has passed. The right grew out of the Court of Chancery in the seventeenth century and was set out in Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England (1766), then treated at length in Turner's The Equity of Redemption (1931). The referent is a proprietary right in one specific asset, protected so that a lender cannot simply keep the property outright, and it is distinct from spiritual deliverance from sin or a redemptive turn in a personal narrative.[5][1][2]

Unit
A borrower's equitable interest in one mortgaged asset
Recovery means
The property is redeemed once the debt, interest, and costs are paid; the right is lost if the court forecloses
Measured by
Established and enforced through courts of equity, not by measurement

Narrative and personality psychology

A life-story passage where a bad event turns good

In personality psychology, a redemption sequence is a passage in a person's life story in which a decidedly negative event is followed by a positive outcome, so that suffering is narrated as giving way to gain. McAdams, Reynolds, Lewis, Patten, and Bowman (2001) defined and coded such sequences and linked them to well-being in midlife adults, within the broader life-story model of identity that McAdams (2001) laid out in The Psychology of Life Stories. The referent is a measurable feature of how a person tells the story of their own life, not a doctrine of deliverance from sin or a legal right to recover mortgaged property.[3][4]

Unit
One narrated episode moving from a bad scene to a good outcome
Recovery means
Not applicable
Measured by
Coded by trained raters from written or spoken life-narrative accounts and related to well-being measures
