The (mis)management of agency: Conscious belief and nonconscious self-control
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 January 2010
Abstract
McKay & Dennett (M&D) identify positive illusions as fulfilling the criteria for an adaptive misbelief, but could there be other types of beliefs that may qualify as adaptive misbeliefs? My commentary addresses this and other questions through identifying belief in free will as a potential candidate as an adaptive misbelief.
