I am wondering what the proper adjective for the verb agency/the noun agent is. Is it agentic, agentive, or agential? I found all of them used in philosophical and scientific papers.
Some examples:
"So, what is new in Barad's agential realism is to recognise matter as agentic in the process of an intra-active materialisation with other embodied beings..."
"... a new way of thinking materialism, of understanding matter as agentive."
"My aim is to conceptualize bodies as agentive points of mediation between a culture that seeks to mark ..."
"... because such activities involve component changes that require elemental bodies as agential subjects"
Thank you!
