ABSTRACT
When you’re deliberating about what to do, must you believe of each contemplated course of action that you’re free to pursue it? And does acting freely require that you rst deliberate about what to do? If there’s a single sense of ‘deliberate’ on which we should answer both questions af rmatively, then there is an interesting doxastic requirement on free action: you act freely only if you’ve believed of more than one course of action that you’re free to pursue it.
