Free will - Assumes humans are free to choose their behaviour, and that influences (biological or environmental) can be rejected at will.
Hard determinism - Behaviour is caused by events outside an individual’s control. Free will is an illusion.
Soft determinism - Behaviour is caused by a person’s own character or conscious desires. If our actions are voluntary and in line with our conscious desired goals, then they are free.
Biological determinism - Behaviour is caused by internal biological factors, e.g. genetics, neurochemistry, brain structure and hormones.
Environmental determinism - Behaviour is caused by past experience and controlled by external forces in the environment, e.g. reinforcement and punishment.
Psychic determinism - Unconscious forces and innate drives control behaviour. All we say and do has a cause.
