Causal Exclusion Problem

The Causal Exclusion Problem is a philosophical argument in the metaphysics of mind that challenges non-reductive physicalism by asserting that if every physical event has a sufficient physical cause, then mental causes—unless reducible to physical causes—must be causally excluded, thereby threatening the efficacy of mental states in producing physical behavior.
