Findings - Social structures that support the exercise of free will are central to the functioning of both social and psychological contracts. Research limitations/implications - The paper contributes to the debate in the natural and social sciences regarding the existence and functioning of free will in everyday life. Practical implications - Highlights the importance of the configuration of choices or options people have to promote expression of free will. Social implications - Social contracts that support or provide attractive options are key to the expression of free will. Originality/value - The paper contributes to the debate in the natural and social sciences regarding the existence and functioning of free will in everyday life.
