Title: Declan Smithies
Affective Experience, Reasons for Action, and Desire
What is the role of affective experience in explaining how our desires
provide us with reasons for action? When we desire that p, we are thereby
disposed to feel attracted to the prospect that p, or to feel averse to the
prospect that not-p. In this paper, we argue that these affective
experiences – feelings of attraction and aversion – provide us with reasons
for action in virtue of their phenomenal character. Moreover, we argue that
desires provide us with reasons for action only because they are
dispositions to have affective experiences. On this account, affective
experience has a central role to play in explaining how desires provide
reasons for action.
