ABSTRACT
Human actions remain at the core of most serious explanatory work undertaken within the behavioural sciences, but there still remain major obstacles blocking an appreciation of the truly unique status of the phenomena we subsume under this rubric. In particular, an abiding theme in explanatory strategies continues to be the objective of explaining human actions by invoking probabilistic causality as an epistemic solution to the problem of the failure of deductive-nomological causal schemata in this domain.1
