Abstract

We suggest that certain experiences reported by patients with schizophrenia show that priority, consistency, and exclusivity are not sufficient for the experience of willing an action. Furthermore, we argue that even if priority consistency, and exclusivity cause the experience of being the author of an action, this does not mean that conscious will is an illusion.
