The unconscious sways our decisions

November 3rd, 2007 · No Comments ·

I have often said that a big problem for any “free will” philosophy is the influence of the unconscious on our decisions; and if we are not even conscious of the information that biases our decisions, how can one speak of free will in any sensible way? Finally I have a paper which I can refer to :-)
