    To the extent that New Rational Reflection (of the previous section) calls for a match between first-order and second-order beliefs it counts as a Non-Akrasia principle. However, this particular matching requirement is subject to several problems about evidence that are brought out by Lasonen-Aarnio (2015). It requires substantive assumptions about evidence and updating our beliefs that are not obvious, and does not appear to respect the internalism about rationality that apparently motivates it
