Empirial evidence that Free Will Illusionism is False/Unmotivated?
Some of you may not be aware of some interesting free will and moral responsibility discussions on other blogs. Thomas Nadelhoffer and Adam Feltz from FSU have recently done another interesting experiment, this one exploring the way in which Smilansky's Illusionism is (i) more dependent on empirical claims that other views about free will and (ii) the empirical data doesn't support Illusionism. A fascinating post describing the experiment, as well as a good discussion of the experiment, can be found at the Experimental Philosophy blog here.
