“…In developing a comprehensive framework for both the conceptualisation and measurement of intuition, Pretz et al (2014) argued that affective, inferential, and holistic intuition represented distinct types of information processing within a unifying intuitive mode. A concise definition of these three types are presented below:…”

“…We then turn to the issue of deep-level diversity and the need to develop more nuanced and empirically grounded explanatory frameworks which consider the two-way effects of cognitive diversity in decision-making teams in general, and of intuitive decision styles in particular (Klein, Knight, Ziegert, Lim, & Saltz, 2011;Pretz et al, 2014). Such frameworks are of particular relevance to the entrepreneurship literature given the uncertain, high-risk, time pressured, and emotionally challenging nature of the entrepreneurial process and the subsequent reliance on intuition in that domain (Baron, 2008).…”

Business information systems, university college cork, cork, ireland ABSTRACT Intuition, which ranges in style from affective to inferential to holistic (Pretz et al 2014) can play a central role in decision-making, as decision makers must often balance intuition with rational analytical thinking. This paper explores the influence of intuition based decision style diversity on both the emergence of transactive memory systems (TMS) and team performance in an entrepreneurial setting.

Business information systems, university college cork, cork, ireland ABSTRACT Intuition, which ranges in style from affective to inferential to holistic (Pretz et al. 2014) can play a central role in decision-making, as decision makers must often balance intuition with rational analytical thinking. This paper explores the influence of intuition based decision style diversity on both the emergence of transactive memory systems (TMS) and team performance in an entrepreneurial setting. The uncertainty of an entrepreneurial setting leads to a greater emphasis on intuitive thinking in the team context. However, intuition as a basis for decision-making manifests itself in a variety of forms. And not all forms of intuitive tendencies lend themselves to a team decisionmaking context that is cohesive, or to decisions that are strategically coherent. Given that a diversity of intuitive tendencies is likely to be found in every team setting, and as such may exert a considerable influence on the decision-making process, we develop hypotheses in order to investigate the nature of this influence. Drawing on data collected from 188 participants across 22 countries and split into 48 entrepreneurial ICT teams, our findings show strong support for the influence of intuitive decision style diversity on both team level states and team performance. The explanatory model developed has significant implications for contemporary understanding of decisionmaking teams, deep-level diversity, the entrepreneurial process, and TMS research.

“…We question their claim that the Bimplicit system cannot, by itself, be creative above and beyond the creativity exhibited by evolutionary algorithms in nature -in a blind manner.^This may be consistent with how the implicit system is characterized in some dual processing theories (e.g., Evans, 2003) but not in others, and particularly those in the creativity literature. Judgments driven by the implicit system can arise due to different types of intuitions, some of which reflect statistical and inferential regularities that are far from blind (Pretz et al, 2014;see Sowden, Pringle, & Gabora, 2015, for a discussion of the relationship between dual processing models and creativity). Here the implicit system is generally characterized as giving rise specifically to ideas that have particular features which, though seemingly Bremote^in the given context, are relevant to it (e.g., Finke, Ward, & Smith, 1992).…”

Dietrich and Haider (Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 21 (5), 897-915, 2014) justify their integrative framework for creativity founded on evolutionary theory and prediction research on the grounds that Btheories and approaches guiding empirical research on creativity have not been supported by the neuroimaging evidence.^Although this justification is controversial, the general direction holds promise. This commentary clarifies points of disagreement and unresolved issues, and addresses mis-applications of evolutionary theory that lead the authors to adopt a Darwinian (versus Lamarckian) approach. To say that creativity is Darwinian is not to say that it consists of variation plus selection -in the everyday sense of the term -as the authors imply; it is to say that evolution is occurring because selection is affecting the distribution of randomly generated heritable variation across generations. In creative thought the distribution of variants is not key, i.e., one is not inclined toward idea A because 60 % of one's candidate ideas are variants of A while only 40 % are variants of B; one is inclined toward whichever seems best. The authors concede that creative variation is partly directed; however, the greater the extent to which variants are generated non-randomly, the greater the extent to which the distribution of variants can reflect not selection but the initial generation bias. Since each thought in a creative process can alter the selective criteria against which the next is evaluated, there is no demarcation into generations as assumed in a Darwinian model. We address the authors' claim that reduced variability and individuality are more characteristic of Lamarckism than Darwinian evolution, and note that a Lamarckian approach to creativity has addressed the challenge of modeling the emergent features associated with insight.Keywords High order cognition .

Cognitive neuroscience As Dietrich and Haider (2014) suggest, synthesizing creativity into an integrated framework that incorporates evolutionary theory and literature on prediction could enrich our understanding of how this mental faculty has transformed human civilizations. This commentary briefly addresses their negative pronouncement on efforts toward a neuroscience of creativity, clears out some errors in their application of evolutionary theory to creativity, and clarifies points of disagreement and unresolved issues in order to pave the way for an integrated understanding of how the creative process works. Prospects for a neuroscience of creativityThe rationale Dietrich and Haider give for embarking on the research program described in this paper is that Ball theories and approaches guiding empirical research on creativitydivergent thinking, defocused attention, right brains, low arousal, prefrontal activation, alpha enhancement, etc. -have not been supported by the neuroimaging evidence.^We believe it is important to point out ...

“…Some concluded that intuitive nurses make a holistic judgment in clinical settings, and integrate diverse information to make a decision. 16 Miller argued these nurses were willing to act on their intuitions, were skilled clinicians, incorporating a spiritual component into their practices, expressed an interest in the abstract nature of things, and were risk takers. 2 It is also believed that critical care nurses use intuition as best practice in complicated and emergency clinical situations, 17 because they care for more critically ill patients.…”

The intuitive nurse in critical care practice: a phenomenological study

Intuition in clinical practice is the ability to experience the elements of a clinical situation as a whole, and to solve a problem or reach a decision with limited concrete information. Benner theorized that the expert nurse acts on intuition, but that he/she also deals with some ambiguities. However, there is a lack of studies about intuitive nursing in the critical care arena, where more critically ill patients are admitted. So, this study was conducted to explore the features of the intuitive nurse in critical care practice. In a descriptive-phenomenological study, twelve nurses employed in critical care units of the hospitals affiliated to Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences were recruited to the study, as purposive, a semi-structured interview was administered to them, then written down verbatim. The data was managed by MAXQDA 10 software (VERBI GmbH, Berlin, Germany) and analyzed as qualitative through the seven-stage approach of Colaizzi. Of the 12 nurses who participated in the study, seven (58.3%) were female and married, 88.3% (10 people) had a Bachelor of Nursing and the mean and standard deviations of the participants' age, job experience and critical care experience were 36.66±7.01, 13.75±6.82 and 7.66±3.36 years, respectively. From the qualitative analysis of the data, we extracted three main themes, including proficiency, connection and benevolence, and ten sub-themes. The intuitive nurses were substantially proficient in terms of knowledge, skill and experience, and relationships to patients. They desired to help the patients based on their consciences.
