Weakness of the will and akrasia : responding to Holton's account.Pitchford, Michael. January 2012 (has links)
There is a standard problem in action theory regarding weakness of the will. The problem arises
from a pair if claims that seem to be mutually exclusive. On the one hand there is the traditional
account of action as put forward by Davidson in 1963 which says that an action x is intentional if the
agent judges there to be a good reason to x , and so does x. On the other hand it seems that often
an agent intentionally performs some action and yet that action is not what they judged to be best
and so we call that action weak willed. The former statement of intentional action cannot account
for the intentional action in the latter claim, and so there is on the face of things, a problem for the
traditional Davidsonian account of action.
Richard Holton argues that we need to completely redefine weakness of the will in terms of the
revision of resolutions. He offers a range of arguments which he thinks show the traditional
account to be flawed. In his book Willing, Wanting, Waiting (2009) Holton argues that there is both
theoretical room for, and evidence of, intentions (and more specifically resolutions) as self-standing
states. Resolutions are a second-order type of intentions with the specific goal of defeating contrary
inclinations. Holton argues that, using resolutions, we can redefine weakness of the will. His claim
is that an agent is weak willed if an only if the agent unreasonably reconsiders and revises their
resolution to act. Much of this relies on his exposition of the notion of choice, where he argues that
intentions and resolutions are formed independently of judgments. This means that weakness of the
will in terms of resolutions avoids some of the problems posed by unorthodox cases of weakness of
the will.
In this dissertation I will argue three central points. First, Holton does not show adequately that
resolutions are the sorts of intentions that can be formed prior to judgment. Second I will argue
that even if the first argument were to fail, there is no real problem for the Davidsonian account of
weakness of the will. Finally I will argue that the inclusion of intentions warrants much further
investigation. I will show that following Holton's elucidation of choice, the intentions-theorist faces
a dilemma. I will argue that neither of these options is palatable for the intentions-theorist. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2012.

”NU GÖR DU SOM JAG VILL” – EN KVALITATIV STUDIE PÅ BEGREPPET ”IMPOSE WILL”Söderman, Jarno, Sivertsson, Simon January 2009 (has links)
<p>Begreppet ”impose will” är något som används frekvent inom kampsportsvärlden som något individen strävar efter i en duellsituation. Syftet med studien var att utveckla en teori eller modell av kampsportares syn på begreppet ”impose will”. I studien användes 16 kampsportare med olika erfarenhetsnivå samt olika stilar. Råmaterialet framkom genom intervjuer och metodologin som användes i analysen var inspirerad av grundad teori. Begreppet översattes till svenska och resultatet gav en kärnkategori med tre huvudkategorier som förklarade processen kring individens försök till att påtvinga sin vilja på motståndaren. I diskussionen ges förslag på hur idrottspsykologiska rådgivare kan använda resultatet samt vad som rekommenderas för framtida forskning.</p>
