Cognitive Psychology/ Free will

Do we have free-will or are our actions/thoughts determined (perhaps pre-determined) outside of our conscious awareness? What are some (as many as coherently possible) of the many variables/factors that cognitive research on attention, decision making, brain damage, emotion, and split-brain patients (etc) have shown to influence our thoughts/actions/behaviors? *Answers to this question type should be made up of many paragraphs over multiple pages. BUT, your answer should still be focused and succinct. In general, your answer will be made up of an introductory paragraph that outlines what is to come in your essay, followed by multiple paragraphs that cite/explain all the relevant research findings pertaining to the topic(s) of interest (this can be thought of as the essay body, which should be made up of multiple short answer style paragraphs), followed by a “conclusions/implications” paragraph that ties it all together and/or wraps everything up nicely. Again, be as focused and to the point as possible. Longer answers are not better answers. That said, cite as much relevant research as possible. -I put 7 for the resources but just cite as much as you can.
