“…The alternative view presented here fills in the missing part of the story. In particular, it depicts the circumstance of ordinary weakness of will as involving one's realisation of being in the way of akrasia, cou²²The subsequent discussion of pre-commitment draws on Radoilska (2012).…”

This article offers an account of akrasia as a primary failure of intentional agency in contrast to a recent account of weakness of will, developed by Richard Holton, that also points to a kind of failure of intentional agency but presents this as both separate from akrasia and more fundamental than it. Drawing on Aristotle's work, it is argued that the failure of intentional agency articulated by the concept of akrasia is the central case, whereas the phenomenon Holton's account is after, referred to as 'ordinary weakness of will', is best understood as an unsuccessful a empt to tackle akrasia and, more specifically, a secondary failure of intentional agency.

“…Arguably, this overlap is more than a coincidence: in each case, the ascription criteria at play with respect track aspects -albeit different -of the same feature, acting for reasons of one's own. So, when we ask whether a person, a choice or an action are autonomous and/or responsible, we are trying to discern the extent to which they display capacities, such as rationality, the 'reasons' aspect, but also control, the 'ownership' aspect of acting for reasons of one's own (McAninch 2017;Radoilska 2012).…”

“…The analysis builds on two distinctions. The first is between three families of autonomy conceptions explored in Radoilska (2012): value-neutral (autonomy as self-governance), substantive (autonomy as authenticity) and relational (autonomy as equal personal standing within a community). The second is between three kinds of responsibility put forward in in Shoemaker (2015): accountability, attributability and answerability.…”

“…This can be fleshed out in terms of character planning that aims to remove as much as possible any covert influences that affect us precisely in virtue of our being unaware of them (Colburn 2011). Alternatively, it can be devised as a character-building exercise meant to diminish and ultimately outgrow what an agent perceives as akratic distractions (Radoilska 2012). In either case, an authentic self will not be autonomous in the sense of being effortlessly forged by our voluntary choices.…”

“…Anxiety could possibly act as a bridge to link the two networks together. Meanwhile, given that mental disturbance can greatly impact autonomy (Radoilska, 2012 ) and self-efficacy (Rabani Bavojdan et al, 2011 ; Grøtan et al, 2019 ) in the general domain, it can presumably exert influences on the reifications of autonomy and self-efficacy in the L2 learning context. Guided by the network theory, the impact of mental disturbance on L2 learning psychology could be illuminated and the activation trajectories could be construed.…”

The impact of mental disturbance on second language learning psychology among Chinese undergraduate students: a structural equation modelling analysis

Recent developments in the field of second language acquisition have led to a growing interest in exploring the influential power of domain-general psychological properties in the L2 learning context. Several attempts have been made to elucidate the impact of properties such as boredom, resilience and enjoyment, etc. However, the association between psychopathology and second language learning psychology has received scant attention and has not been closely examined. Hence, the current study aims to explore the impact of mental disturbance on second language learning psychology and delineate the influential trajectory, by referring to the network approach as the theoretical foundation. Participants were 173 Chinese speakers of L2 English. By performing correlation analysis and structural equation modelling analysis, this research revealed that mental disturbance had a significant positive impact on L2 anxiety and a significant negative impact on L2 autonomy and L2 self-efficacy. L2 anxiety and L2 autonomy acted as mediating roles in the impact of mental disturbance on L2 self-efficacy, in which a chain mediation trajectory was detected. An expanded network approach was thus advanced. Pedagogical implication and future research were identified and discussed.
