Answer:

Indeterminists and soft determinists (compatibilists) both believe that freewill is consistent with causal determinism.

b) False

Step-by-step explanation:

Determinism is the idea that all events could happen in another way than the one they occur. While indeterminism is the idea that "events" are inconsistent because there is a freewill attached to all of them. Now, compatibilism or soft determinism says that free will and determinism both are always consistent. So, they don't believe the same. Furthermore, they believe the opposite, thus the correct answer is false.
