“…However, these perceptions were also signi® cantly dependent upon the question of whether the behavioural alternative under consideration was perceived by the observer to be congruent with the actor's disposition or not. T he results were in line with the predictions derived from the theoretical m odel of Trope and Burnstein (1977) and Trope (1978), w ith regard not only to perceived freedom but also to perceived choice, control and responsibility. From a broader attribution-theoretical perspective, the present ® ndings also corroborated the previously demonstrated close relationships between these constructs (Harvey, 1976;H arvey et al, 1979).…”

“…To investigate som e of the issues addressed above, an attributional app roach not previously adopted in sport and exercise psychology can be used. Speci® cally, Trope and Burnstein (1977) and Trope (1978) suggested that perceived freedom is signi® cantly in¯uenced by disposition-behavio ur congruity. That is, the higher or lower the perceived congruence between an individual's disposition (i.e.…”

“…In line w ith these ideas, Trope and Burnstein (1977) and Trope (1978) de® ned the am ount of freedom attributed to an individual, before observing his or her choice, in term s of judged probabilities that the individual's personal dispositions will be expressed in congruent behaviours. Consider now an individual who has one of several dispositions and who is to choose one of several behavio urs, where the behavio urs and dispositions are m utually exclusive and exh austive.…”

Accepted 24 M ay 1996The aim of this study was to investigate the extent to which perceptions of external conditions, such as physical proximity to the exercise area and disposition-behaviour congruity, affect observers' perceptions of personal causation of exercise adherers and non-adherers with regard to physical activity. The hypothetical scenario technique was used, with 120 adherers and 120 non-adherers, to investigate attributions of freedom, choice, control and responsibility. The results revealed that these attributions were signi® cantly affected by perceived external conditions, and by the question of whether behavioural alternatives to be chosen were perceived as being congruent with an actor's disposition. Similar attributional patterns were revealed on all dimensions of personal causation, for the adherers and non-adherers. The implications of these ® ndings for attributional research in the area of exercise adherence are discussed.

Close Calls and the Confident Agent: Free Will, Deliberation, and Alternative Possibilities

Two intuitions lie at the heart of our conception of free will. One intuition locates free will in our ability to deliberate effectively and control our actions accordingly: the ÔDeliberation and ControlÕ (DC) condition. The other intuition is that free will requires the existence of alternative possibilities for choice: the AP condition. These intuitions seem to conflict when, for instance, we deliberate well to decide what to do, and we do not want it to be possible to act in some other way. I suggest that intuitions about the AP condition arise when we face Ôclose calls,Õ situations in which, after deliberating, we still do not know what we really want to do. Indeed, several incompatibilists suggest such close calls are necessary for free will. I challenge this suggestion by describing a Ôconfident agentÕ who, after deliberating, always feels confident about what to do (and can then control her actions accordingly). Because she maximally satisfies the DC condition, she does not face close calls, and the intuition that the AP condition is essential for free will does not seem to apply to her. I conclude that intuitions about the importance of the AP condition rest on our experiences of close calls and arise precisely to the extent that our deliberations fail to arrive at a clear decision. I then raise and respond to several objections to this thought experiment and its relevance to the free will debate. A CLASH OF INTUITIONSPhilosophical Studies (2006) 131:627-667 Ó Springer 2006
