ABSTRACT
On a strong interpretation, one's reason for action isn't merely a consideration that guides the action, but the consideration is also seen under the guise of the good. While a reason understood under the guise of the good is also a consideration seen as speaking in favor of the action, the reverse need not be the case: One can act on considerations that one takes to speak in favor of the action without seeing them under the guise of the good, that is, without the background notion that taking a consideration as a reason is something one can be correct or incorrect about. The Watsonians might have the resources to say that actions are attributable to psychopaths even if they don't see reasons under the guise of the good. According to the Scanlonians, the decisive condition of holding accountable is that the person's actions express a view of what the appropriate reasons for acting are in the circumstances at hand.
