Correlates of Intuitive Thinking

Abstract

Five kinds of data were gathered on various groups of college females who differ in their approach to and success in solving problems. Ss high and low on intuitiveness and on success, as defined here, were studied in some detail Usual measures of intellectual capacity and standard personality measures discriminated only slightly between the groups, but more detailed study of the personality scales, interviews, and self-concept materials revealed these groups to have clearly distinguishable patterns of personality characteristics.

Exploring Intuition and its Role in Managerial Decision Making

“…For example, Jung (1933), Westcott and Ranzoni (1963), and Raidl andLubart (2000-2001) refer to intuition largely as a process-a way of perceiving or sorting data. Rorty (1967), in contrast, sees intuition primarily as an outcome-as what one apprehends or recognizes.…”

The profile of an intuitive decision maker and the use of intuition in decision-making practice

“…Other reasons for the differences in defi ning this concept include controversies regarding the determination of its constituent elements, the factors affecting it, its scope, characteristics, homogeneity, the mechanisms involved in its formation, its impact on the effectiveness of decision-making, as well as the existence of a relationship between intuition and the experience of the decision maker. Based on an analysis of the literature, it can be seen that intuition is presented from three perspectives (Stańczyk and Sus 2013, p. 6):   as a process (Jung 1933;Westcott and Ranzoni 1963;Raidl and Lubart 2000),   as an outcome (Kahneman 2003),   as an attribute (Myers 2002;Policastro 1999).…”

Strateji̇k Karar Verme Süreci̇nde Sezgi̇ni̇n Önemi̇: Kavramsal Bi̇r Çalişma

“…Sezginin bir diğer özelliği de bilinenin aksine sadece dâhilere özgü olmayan, doğuştan gelen ve herkeste var olan içsel bir yetenek oluşudur. Önemli düzeyde bilgi gerektiren problemlerin çözümüne sınırlı bilgi ile hızlı ve doğrudan ulaşabilme sürecini içinde barındıran sezgi, herkes tarafından günlük hayatta dahi kullanılabilmektedir (Westcott ve Ranzoni, 1963;Behling ve Eckel, 1991). Sezginin bu özelliği birçok teorisyen tarafından da doğrulanmakta ve sezginin herkes tarafından eşit olarak ulaşılabilir olduğu fakat kullanım hızı ve sıklığı konusunda farklılıklar yaşandığı savunulmaktadır (Westcott ve Ranzoni, 1963;Reber, Walkenfeld ve Hernstadt, 1991).…”
