 Rather than get bogged down in textual interpretation of Mischel’s work, we can simply note that there appears to be a straightforward path from the CAPS model to the acceptance of character traits understood as causal dispositions to think, feel, and act in various ways (see Mumford 1998: 182; Kamtekar 2004: 472, 477; Adams 2006: 131–138; Badhwar 2009: 279; Russell 2009: xii, 172, 292–293, 330; Sosa 2009: 279; Lukes 2009: 292). We have seen that the CAPS model already accepts dispositions to form, say, instrumental beliefs, desires, values, and goals. These were among the “cognitive-affective units”. These units tend to be relatively enduring psychological structures in a person’s mind, they are sensitive to their own activating conditions, and, upon being activated, they serve to cause the formation of occurrent mental states like beliefs and (other things being equal) behavior. They are also the basis for true “if…then…” conditionals, as we saw earlier.
