How the epistemic, control and diachronic conditions can vary along a spectrum of demandingness
| Condition | Level of demandingness | ||
| High | Moderate | Low | |
| Epistemic | Extensive knowledge about consequences of action, including their moral significance, and how to bring about/avoid particular consequences. | Some knowledge about consequences of action, though potential for misunderstandings/failure to integrate into one’s own circumstances. | Little knowledge about consequences of action and how it is relevant to one’s behavioural decisions/fulfilment of projects/moral obligations. |
| Control | Total control over one’s behaviour, enacted with ease. | General control over one’s behaviour though some struggle may be required and occasional failure to enact behaviour as intended. | Poor control over behaviour. |
| Diachronic | Epistemic and control conditions met on all instances of behaviour. | Epistemic and control conditions met on many/some instances of behaviour. | Epistemic and control conditions rarely/never met regarding particular behaviour. |
