cause 泛指一切导致结果的因素，范围比 agent 广；agent 更强调主动施加作用的人或物。在“某事物导致某结果”的语境中可互换，但在科学语境中（如 chemical agent）不宜改用 cause。
force 侧重物理力量或抽象影响力，常用于 the force behind...（背后的推动力）；agent 可以是人、团体或物质，而 force 通常不用于指具体的人。
actor 在此指主动行动的人或团体，不是“演员”，常见于哲学或社科语境（如 moral actor）。agent 也可用来指非人物质，所以 chemical agent 不能改成 chemical actor。
