This seems to presuppose that the human will successfully execute their decision, or that they will even make one. Perhaps there should be a fourth category: flail about without any decision, and then justify their behavior post-hoc to maximize their self-worth.

IMHO that's the option 1. Continue what you were doing.

Although, maybe you mean things like anxiety, something like fight/flight/freeze response. I guess you could put these sort of human defaults into a separate category.
