Abstract:
Deep selves, in one way or another, feature significantly within our folk-psychology and play a particularly central role in our moral responsibility practices. Our intuitions about others’ deep selves explain an otherwise complex pattern of responsibility attribution, with agents being held responsible for behaviour that in some way reflects the contents of their deep selves and getting off the hook for behaviour that doesn’t. Philosophers who have addressed the deep self concept directly have typically done so on the assumption that the object of these intuitions is a real thing - a natural

Abstract:
This project examines drug addiction and personal responsibility from the perspective of three different types of theories of addiction: full responsibility, diminished responsibility, and no responsibility. The rational theory of addiction is the fully responsibility theory. The philosophical insights by R. Jay Wallace and George Graham are the diminished responsibility theories. Berridge and Robinson’s Incentive Salience theory of drug addiction is the no responsibility theory examined. My conclusion is that diminished responsibility frameworks are the most suitable in a therapeutic context

This thesis addresses three questions concerned with children's attributions of responsibility to others for behavioural outcomes involving injury. The first question explored hypotheses concerned with developmental differences in relation to Heider's (1958) levels of responsibility. Subjects ranged from middle childhood to early adulthood. Although judgements became increasingly differentiated with age, even the youngest subjects could make significant discriminations, especially if given time to compare and revise evaluations.

In this thesis, I defend compatibilism from all manipulation arguments. Manipulation arguments are supported by control cases. These cases purport to be counter-examples to all plausible current compatibilist conditions on moral responsibility. Some compatibilists – historicists – have argued that manipulation arguments can be undermined by endorsing the view that an individual’s moral responsibility for her actions is, in some sense, sensitive to her history. In Part One, I first argue that historicism is without motivation and is untenable. I then sketch a form of compatibilism – the structu

Objectives: Mental contamination is the psychological sense of dirtiness that arises in the absence of physical contact with a perceived contaminant.

Behaviors performed due to personal responsibility are performed for internal as opposed to external reasons.

The value of “personal responsibility” increasingly stands at the center of contemporary discussions about distributive justice and the welfare state.

The thesis analyses the legal complexities of corporate control over personal social media use and the challenges in both managing corporate risk and preserving personal autonomy interests of identity, participation and speech in online spaces. The research outlines what is wrong with social media policies and highlights uncertainties in the law from an individual autonomy perspective. It proposes an innovative model
