LIBET’S EXPERIMENTS AND THE PROBLEM OF FREE WILL

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to give an answer to the question of the extent to which Libet’s experiments are helping to solve the problem of free will. Relevance of Libet’s experimental results for the problem of free will is contested by the multitude of complaints. These complaints can be divided into three categories: methodological objections, conceptual objections and complaints regarding the interpretation of the role of readiness potential. I am trying to show that only objections that belong to the last group have a real effect. I conclude that Libet’s experiments while providing significant incentives and suggestions for further research did not contribute to solving the problem of free will.
