Abstract
Reasons for action are central in understanding persons and in describing their moral obligations. We begin by outlining the main kinds, using chie fl y examples in which a reason might be the basis of a moral obligation. Following that outline, we can see important points about the relation between reasons and other elements in which they play a major role, particularly moral motivation, moral judgment, and the explanation of action.
