An act is the volitional movement of a person's body. Unconscious or instinctive acts are not considered volitional. You have to think it for it to be an act.

It is the volitional form of the verb "yaru," meaning "to do."

Non-volitional behavior refers to actions or responses that occur involuntarily, without conscious control or intention. These behaviors are often reflexive or instinctual in nature, such as blinking, sweating, or certain emotional reactions.

When Wundt said volitional acts are creative but not free, he meant that individuals have the power to actively shape their experiences and actions, but this creativity is still subject to various internal and external influences such as past experiences, societal norms, and genetic predispositions. In this context, creative refers to the active and intentional nature of volitional acts, while not free means that these actions are not entirely independent of determining factors.

The test that focuses on volitional incapacity is called the "insanity defense" or the "irresistible impulse test." It is used in legal proceedings to determine if a defendant lacked the ability to control their actions due to a mental disorder at the time the crime was committed.

Shoes are inanimate objects that devoid of a volitional faculty; therefore, they are unable to hire anyone regardless of their age.

'Chaimashou' grammatically is volitional/suggestive form of '-chau' which is an auxiliary verb (mostly used in informal context) added to the end of other verbs, adding a sense of "doing something to the end, completion or emphasis". However I have never heard of it being used in volitional/suggestive form. It would mean roughly 'let's.....' where in the blanks goes the meaning of the verb that precedes it.

It's volitional or suggestive form of verb 'iku' (to go, to continue), along with its other forms such as 'iki mashou', 'ikou' it means "let's go/go on".

"will" is used in cases when the user wishes to emphasize the volitional aspects of the utterance/sentence. "Going to" can be considered a kind of default form for referring to the future. The present progressive aspect is often used to denote events scheduled for specific times in the future.

To say what you will do in Japanese, you can use the volitional verb tense. In this case, a base verb for "to cook" is 料理をする (ryouri wo suru), and to make it volitional it becomes 料理をしよう (ryouri wo shiyou). A lot of the time though, volitional tense is use to say "let's do x", so you might want to clarify in this case that you are going to cook, by including yourself as the subject [you can do this using any self-identifying noun and the は (ha) particle]. Another thing to note is that 料理 (ryouri) can also be used with 作る (tsukuru), which has the volitional form 作ろう (tsukurou), however this is used to indicate "making" food and does not have the same "preparation" context that　料理をする has. Thus, using 作ろう would be more like saying "I'll make some food", instead of "I'll cook some food". Finally, Japanese has a few nouns for the generic concept of "food", those are 食品 (shokuhin), 食物 (shokumotsu), and another would be 食べ物 (tabemono, lit: things you eat). Applying all these concepts, we can generate quite a few sentences for saying "I'll cook some food". One such sentence would be 私は食べ物を料理しよう (watashi ha tabemono wo ryouri shiyou).

In law or contracts, amiable means "which acts, or is done by the voluntary agreement of the parties; volitional; willful"

It is often used in the expressions: 'accord amiable' (an accepted agreement); 'séparation amiable / divorce à l'amiable' (an agreed separation or divorce).

It is often confused with 'aimable', a related word meaning friendly.

塩 /shi o/ means salt, 潮 /shi o/ can mean 'salt water' as well as 'tide, current' and 'opportunity'. Also しよう /shi you/ could also be the volitional conjugation of verb 'suru' [generally meaning 'to do'], which would make it mean something like 'let's do....'.

To make a verb in Japanese an inclusive "let's" style statement, you use the volitional form. In this case, you are using the transitive form of "to begin" which is 始める (hajimeru). The polite volitional for this is 始めましょう (hajimemashou) or 始めるでしょう (hajimeru deshou), which would be like "Let's begin". Plain form of this is 始めよう (hajimeyou) or 始めるだろう (hajimeru darou) and would have the same "Let's Begin" meaning.

Andrew J. Galambos was the innovator and integrator of the Social Sciences, which he called the Science of Volition. It is through his theories of Freedom and Primary Property that a durable social structure can be built, where the individual is paramount and Freedom is the qualit

You can say この冬休みで～ (kono fuyu yasumi de) which means "During this winter break" and then to say "I shall" or "I will", you can use the volitional verb tense for what you are planning on doing. Another way of saying this, is to use 予定 (yotei) which is "plan". For example, この冬休みにスキーする予定です。 (kono fuyu yasumi ni sukiisuru yotei desu) means "I plan to go skiing this winter break".

Being cognitive means having the ability to think, reason, and process information. It refers to mental processes such as perception, memory, language, attention, and problem-solving. A person who is cognitive is able to understand and interact with the world around them through these mental functions.

Cognitive refers to mental processes such as thinking, reasoning, problem-solving, and decision-making. It involves activities like perception, attention, memory, and language. In essence, cognitive processes encompass how we acquire, process, store, and retrieve information.

pathetic fallacy

look it up in wikipedia

---------------------------------------------

No, I'm sorry - that's related to the question, but not the appropriate answer.

"Pathetic Fallacy" is the personification of weather, not the reflection of mood in the weather. There is a literary term for when the protagonist is sad, for instance, and it is cloudy outside, or when s/he is happy, it is sunny outside. The weather isn't an actor with human characteristics or volitional impact on the moment, but merely a reflection of what's going on. The movie _Taps_ did this marvelously; as the situation unraveled, the weather deteriorated as well until the situation resolved itself --- no more rain.

I remember it as cosmic synchronicity. When the cosmos in synchronized with an individual's or group's mood

Wind is air in motion and is described as to speed and direction-Out of the South at ten miles per hour, to give one. It is probably a corrollary of the earth"s rotation and centrifugal force. I never thought of it that way ( where does the wind come from) The direction can be refined ( from a weather observer"s standpoint, by tracking unmanned weather balloons, the Balloons float in the atmosphere and move at the speed and direction of the wind. They are tracked, viewing conditions permitting, by a special type of Theodolite called a Pibal Theodolite- or Pilot Balloon theodolite. The Pilot prefix is misleading as it assumes these things are under volitional, manned control, they are not.

Doubt is part of our humanity. As finite beings we should doubt.

1. We are limited in knowledge... so there are many things that we don't know.

2. We are limited in reason... so we cannot be fully confident that we have accurate conclusions based on the knowledge we do possess.

3. We are limited in experience... so we cannot exclude other options that we have no personal interaction with.

Acting as if one does not doubt is not bad either. I may sit in a chair based on the likelihood that it will support me, not the total absence of doubt about its ability to support me. To act despite doubt is faith (volitional certainty... not cognitive certainty).

To lack doubt... is not reasonable. To never have any doubt is probably madness.

Voluntary behavior is intentional and under conscious control, requiring a decision or choice to act. Involuntary behavior, on the other hand, occurs without conscious control or awareness, such as reflexes or automatic bodily functions.

Motor neuron disease results in paralysis of the skeletal system because it specifically affects the motor neurons responsible for controlling muscle movement. These motor neurons degenerate and die, leading to a loss of communication between the brain and muscles, ultimately causing muscle weakness and paralysis. Without proper signals from the motor neurons, the skeletal muscles are unable to contract and move, resulting in paralysis.

The wheel on the Indian flag with 24 spokes is the Ashoka Chakra. 12 of the 24 spokes are a representation of the causal links that are taught by Buddha. These are Avidya (lack of knowledge), Samskara (constructive volitional activity), Vijnana (consciousness), Namarupa (name and form), Sadayatana (six senses), Sparsa (contact), Vedana (pain), Trsna (thirst), Upadana (grasping), Bhava (coming to be), Jati (being born) and Jaramarana (old age). The other twelve spokes are represented by the same list, only backward, represent the Dhamma - the Life.

Jean-JacquesRousseau is one of the most influential thinkers during the Enlightenment in eighteenth century Europe. These views are continually discussed among both feminist and Rousseau scholars about of the individual against societal norms, emotions versus reason. Reason is a faculty of awareness; its function is to perceive that which exists by organizing observational data. And reason is a volitional faculty; it has the power to direct its own actions and check its conclusions, the power to maintain a certain relationship to the facts of reality. Emotion, by contrast, is a faculty not of perception, but of reaction to one's perceptions. This kind of faculty has no power of observation and no volition; it has no means of independent access to reality, no means to guide its own course, and no capacity to monitor its own relationship to facts.

The cerebrum is responsible for higher brain functions such as thinking, memory, sensory processing, and voluntary movement. It is divided into two hemispheres, each controlling the opposite side of the body.

Depends on what you mean. If you're talking western philosophy of ethics, the dialogues of Plato are the right place to start for this question.

No! the above is vague and evasive.

"The Good," as a concept, originates in the nature of beings with a volitional conceptual consciousness - that is: Man. Man's distinctive form of consciousness (rationality) is his primary tool of survival. A bird has wings; the elephant has size; the cheetah has speed; but Man relies upon his forming concepts of what will sustain his life (the good) and what threatens his life (the bad).

Animals employ their distinctive method of survival on a strictly perceptual level. Their five senses provide them with immediate evidence of basic alternatives: eat or sleep, fight or run, etc. Man's conceptual faculty (rationality) allows him to build upon the learning of his ancestors, to plan long-range, to identify benefits and threats to his survival which are not visible to the eye. In discovering what will sustain him, or threaten him, Man must "evaluate" conceptually the facts and circumstances he perceives. A bird can eat wheat, but cannot make bread. Lions can gather in a pride, or wolves in a pack, but they cannot write a Constitution. Animals die of diseases, but Man identifies and seeks to cure them. In "evaluating" facts and circumtances conceptually, Man creates morality, whose fundamental question is: Does [this thing] further sustain Man's life (the good) or does [this thing] threaten Man's life (the bad).

Man can not survive long without employing moral values. The fact that he often "gets it wrong" does not refute the point - it proves it. In history, more people have died as the result of bad morality than from all the diseases combined. "The Good" must be discovered and defined by Man's volitional conceptual consciousness. The Good is that which furthers Man's proper survival. And, survival is selfish.

Several counts of child pornography . There are three felony child porn charges: production of, posession of and dissemination of. The original charges by the Feds were for the production of child porn but he may have been mis-charged. The correct charge would be for posession of while each of the girls involved would be charged with production of child porn (if they were under the age of 18 at the time they comitted the acts). If they were over the age of 18 then they would be charged with misdeameanor lewd and lascivious behavior or with felony production of obscene material. It is doubtful that any RICO laws apply in this case. (See USC Title 18, 2252 to 2256).

Exploitation charges against the man may be appropriate if the girls in question performed their acts under duress but it appears that their acts were conducted in a purely volitional manner. Certain state laws and statutes may also apply.

In order to express the intent to perform a verb, you would use the volitional form form of a verb. The conjugation for the Japanese verb Suru (する) is Shiyou (しよう) which would literally mean "will do".

For example, the phrase "今、勉強しよう" would be translated as "Now, I will study".

Absolutely. Faith and doubt are NOT opposites. Rather, faith depends on doubt to have meaning. It is probably wise to separate between faith (volitional certainty) and lack of doubt (cognitive certainty). Absolute cognitive certainty is unrealistic since we are finite beings limited in knowledge, reason, and experience. That is why Soren Kierkegaard described faith as the leaping of a chasm ("leap of faith"). Our knowledge and reason bring us to a point. But that point is not far enough. We see where we want to be, but our knowledge and reason is inadequate to get us there. This inadequacy is our doubt (normal and healthy recognition of our limitations). Faith chooses to act volitionally (of the will) in spite of our doubts.

In the case of a theist, we in faith throw ourselves on the mercy of God... not because our minds are infinite enough to exclude all other possibilities than God. Rather faith accepts our inabilities, and acts despite these. In the case of an atheist, faith is still used, since an atheist is dogged by the same human limitations. He or she simply chooses to leap over the chasm of doubt to a different endpoint.

Kierkegaard's book, "Fear and Trembling" is great (if a bit heavy especially towards the end).

Never let doubt die... it is a healthy part of our humanity. But never let doubt incapacitate you in your quest for the truth.

There are five basic tenses in Japanese: present, past, future, present progressive, and past progressive. Additionally, Japanese language also includes various auxiliary verbs and constructions for expressing different nuances of time and aspect.

One effect of electric current on the body, perhaps the most significant in terms of hazard, regards the nervous system. By "nervous system" I mean the network of special cells in the body called "nerve cells" or "neurons" which process and conduct the multitude of signals responsible for regulation of many body functions. The brain, spinal cord, and sensory/motor organs in the body function together to allow it to sense, move, respond, think, and remember. Nerve cells communicate to each other by acting as "transducers:" creating electrical signals (very small voltages and currents) in response to the input of certain chemical compounds called neurotransmitters, and releasing neurotransmitters when stimulated by electrical signals. If electric current of sufficient magnitude is conducted through a living creature (human or otherwise), its effect will be to override the tiny electrical impulses normally generated by the neurons, overloading the nervous system and preventing both reflex and volitional signals from being able to actuate muscles. Muscles triggered by an external (shock) current will involuntarily contract, and there's nothing the victim can do about it. This problem is especially dangerous if the victim contacts an energized conductor with his or her hands. The forearm muscles responsible for bending fingers tend to be better developed than those muscles responsible for extending fingers, and so if both sets of muscles try to contract because of an electric current conducted through the person's arm, the "bending" muscles will win, clenching the fingers into a fist. If the conductor delivering current to the victim faces the palm of his or her hand, this clenching action will force the hand to grasp the wire firmly, thus worsening the situation by securing excellent contact with the wire. The victim will be completely unable to let go of the wire.

Sorry to say hope is very low. Narcissistic Personality Disorder While grandiosity is the diagnostic hallmark of pathological narcissism, there is research evidence that pathological narcissism occurs in two forms, (a) a grandiose state of mind in young adults that can be corrected by life experiences, and (b) the stable disorder described in DSM-IV, which is defined less by grandiosity than by severely disturbed interpersonal relations. The preferred theory seems to be that narcissism is caused by very early affective deprivation, yet the clinical material tends to describe narcissists as unwilling rather than unable, thus treating narcissistic behaviors as volitional -- that is, narcissism is termed a personality disorder, but it tends to be discussed as a character disorder. This distinction is important to prognosis and treatment possibilities. If NPD is caused by infantile damage and consequent developmental short-circuits, it probably represents an irremediable condition. On the other hand, if narcissism is a behavior pattern that's learned, then there is some hope, however tenuous, that it's a behavior pattern that can be unlearned. The clinical literature on NPD is highly theoretical, abstract, and general, with sparse case material, suggesting that clinical writers have little experience with narcissism in the flesh. There are several reasons for this to be so: -- The incidence of NPD is estimated at 1% in the general population, though I haven't been able to discover the basis of this estimate. -- Narcissists rarely enter treatment and, once in treatment, progress very slowly. We're talking about two or more years of frequent sessions before the narcissist can acknowledge even that the therapist is sometimes helpful. It's difficult to keep narcissists in treatment long enough for improvement to be made -- and few people, narcissists or not, have the motivation or the money to pursue treatment that produces so little so late. -- Because of the influence of third-party payers (insurance companies), there has been a strong trend towards short-term therapy that concentrates on ameliorating acute troubles, such as depression, rather than delving into underlying chronic problems. Narcissists are very reluctant to open up and trust, so it's possible that their NPD is not even recognized by therapists in short-term treatment. Purely anecdotal evidence from correspondents and from observations of people I know indicates that selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors, such as Prozac, aggravate narcissists' grandiosity and lack of social inhibition. It has also been suggested that self-help literature about bolstering self-esteem and getting what you want out of life or that encourages the feeling of victimization has aggravating effects on NPD thinking and behavior. -- Most clinical writers seem unaware that narcissists' self-reports are unreliable. This is troubling, considering that lying is the most common complaint about narcissists and that, in many instances, defects of empathy lead narcissists to wildly inaccurate misinterpretations of other people's speech and actions, so that they may believe that they are liked and respected despite a history of callous and exploitative personal interactions.
