Voluntary actions are those for which the agent is responsible, while involuntary actions are not. - **Specific Use**: ""Involuntary actions then are thought to be of two kinds, being done neither on compulsion, or by reason of ignorance. An action is, properly speaking, compulsory, when the origination is external to the agent, being such that in it the agent (perhaps we may more properly say the patient) contributes nothing; as if a wind were to convey you anywhere, or men having power over your person."" (Book III, Chapter I) 2. **Moral Choice (Prohairesis)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Moral choice is central to Aristotle's ethics because it represents the deliberate selection of actions based on reason and character. - **Specific Use**: ""Now Moral Choice is plainly voluntary, but the two are not co-extensive, voluntary being the more comprehensive term; for first, children and all other animals share in voluntary action but not in Moral Choice; and next, sudden actions we call voluntary but do not ascribe them to Moral Choice."" (Book III, Chapter I) 3. **Self-Control (Enkrateia) and Lack of Self-Control (Akrasia)**: - **Reason for Selection**: These concepts are crucial for understanding how moral responsibility is affected by the ability to control one's actions and desires. - **Specific Use**: ""Again, he who fails when exposed to those temptations against which the common run of men hold out, and are well able to do so, is Soft and Luxurious (Luxury being a kind of Softness): the kind of man, I mean, to let his robe drag in the dirt to avoid the trouble of lifting it."" (Book VII, Chapter VIII) 4. **Virtue (Arete)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Virtue is the disposition to act in accordance with reason and is essential for moral responsibility. - **Specific Use**: ""Virtue then is 'a state apt to exercise deliberate choice, being in the relative mean, determined by reason, and as the man of practical wisdom would determine.' It is a middle state between too faulty ones, in the way of excess on one side and of defect on the other: and it is so moreover, because the faulty states on one side fall short of, and those on the other exceed, what is right, both in the case of the feelings and the actions; but Virtue finds, and when found adopts, the mean."" (Book II, Chapter VI) 5. **Practical Wisdom (Phronesis)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Practical wisdom is the ability to make good decisions and is necessary for moral responsibility. - **Specific Use**: ""Practical Wisdom is not Knowledge is plain, for it has to do with the ultimate issue, as has been said, because every object of action is of this nature."" (Book VI, Chapter IX) 6. **Habituation (Ethos)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Habituation is the process by which virtues are formed, making it a key concept for understanding the development of moral responsibility. - **Specific Use**: ""By the way, a person might also enquire, why a boy may be made a mathematician but not Scientific or a natural philosopher. Is not this the reason? that mathematics are taken in by the process of abstraction, but the principles of Science and natural philosophy must be gained by experiment; and the latter young men talk of but do not realise, while the nature of the former is plain and clear."" (Book VI, Chapter IX) 7. **Ignorance (Agnoia)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Ignorance can affect moral responsibility by excusing actions done out of lack of knowledge. - **Specific Use**: ""Again, we do not usually apply the term involuntary when a man is ignorant of his own true interest; because ignorance which affects moral choice constitutes depravity but not involuntariness: nor does any ignorance of principle (because for this men are blamed) but ignorance in particular details, wherein consists the action and wherewith it is concerned, for in these there is both compassion and allowance, because he who acts in ignorance of any of them acts in a proper sense involuntarily."" (Book III, Chapter I) 8. **Passion (Pathos)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Passions can influence moral responsibility by affecting the ability to act according to reason. - **Specific Use**: ""Again, there is a character liable to be taken off his feet in defiance of Right Reason because of passion; whom passion so far masters as to prevent his acting in accordance with Right Reason, but not so far as to make him be convinced that it is his proper line to follow after such pleasures without limit: this character is the man of Imperfect Self-Control, better than he who is utterly destitute of it, and not a bad man simply and without qualification: because in him the highest and best part, i.e. principle, is preserved."" (Book VII, Chapter VIII) 9. **Deliberation (Boulēsis)**: - **Reason for Selection**: Deliberation is the process of reasoning about the means to achieve a goal, which is essential for moral responsibility. - **Specific Use**: ""So it seems, as has been said, that Man is the originator of his actions; and Deliberation has for its object whatever may be done through one’s own instrumentality, and the actions are with a view to other things; and so it is, not the End, but the Means to Ends on which Deliberation is employed."" (Book III, Chapter III) 10. **Moral Virtues and Vices**: - **Reason for Selection**: Moral virtues and vices are the dispositions that determine moral responsibility. - **Specific Use**: ""Virtue then is 'a state apt to exercise deliberate choice, being in the relative mean, determined by reason, and as the man of practical wisdom would determine.' It is a middle state between too faulty ones, in the way of excess on one side and of defect on the other: and it is so moreover, because the faulty states on one side fall short of, and those on the other exceed, what is right, both in the case of the feelings and the actions; but Virtue finds, and when found adopts, the mean.""
