Will, Volition, Voluntary

Just as the exercise of Will is 'volitional', it can also be characterized as 'voluntary'. Similarly, since, as has been previously discussed, Will can be quantified, and, thus, vary in degree of volition, an act can be more or less voluntary. The use of 'voluntary' thus has at least one advantage over that of a term such as 'free', the considerable baggage of which includes limitation to only two values.
