“…Our findings are consistent with this concept in that we found that development of the clinical gaze is a constant process that requires time and opportunities for reflection in daily work. Our findings are also consistent with the findings of Hurteau et al ( 2020 ) that the development of intuition is fostered by expertise and experiences. Also consistent with the findings of Kvande et al ( 2016 ), our study emphasizes the importance of being physically present with a patient to develop the clinical gaze.…”

Purpose This qualitative study describes nurses’ experiences and perceptions of how they develop the clinical gaze. Methods This qualitative study used an inductive approach and content analysis to assess the experiences of newly graduated nurses, nurse managers, and nursing teachers. Nineteen interviews were conducted. To achieve credibility, the study followed the guidelines of the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative research (COREQ). Results Two themes emerged: nurses’ personal abilities and the learning culture. Learning culture was considered the foundation of the development of the clinical gaze. The clinical gaze was found to be developed in relationships with patients and when learning together with colleagues, in which the opportunities for reflection are central. To develop the clinical gaze, structures for learning activities, such as reflection, communication exercises, and simulation, are needed so that they become a natural part of daily work. This can also be achieved through supervision and skills training both at university and in a care context. Conclusions Prerequisites for the development of the clinical gaze include physical presence with the patient combined with learning activities such as conscious reflection with others in a safe learning culture.

“…It is also the only subcode present in all interviews, suggesting First-Hand Experience is the predominant experiencebuilding practice among practitioners. This result aligns with the strong emphasis on experience as a contributor to expertise development described in the literature (Chi, 2006;Hurteau et al, 2020;Patel & Groen, 1991;Phillips et al, 2004;Seifert et al, 1997) and supports the framework depiction of Outcome feeding back into the intuition lightbulb.…”

“…Interestingly, the idea of "incorrect intuition" leading to failure did not emerge in any of the interviews; however, there was an implication that failures were the result of inexperience and underdeveloped intuition. The ability of success and failure (i.e., Outcome) to collectively develop intuition has been reported in the literature (Hurteau et al, 2020). LITES subsequently depicts Outcome feeding back into intuition to capture how Experience is built upon the Outcome of past problem-solving scenarios.…”

Background: A defining characteristic of expertise is the use of intuition to navigate tasks. The construct of intuition and its importance is well-studied in other disciplines, but little is known about how it translates to engineering.Existing literature on intuition does not clearly define the construct and its relationship to problem solving, which creates a substantial gap in our understanding of intuition and its applicability to engineering. Purpose: This study's purpose is to better understand the relationship between expertise, decision-making, and intuition from the perspective of engineering practitioners. We additionally seek to define engineering intuition from this same perspective.Design/Methods: Seventeen semi-structured interviews were conducted with engineering practitioners with at least 6 years of experience. Sensitizing concepts tied to models of expertise development and dual process cognition were used to guide the study's design and data analysis. Iterative qualitative analysis culminating in code mapping supported the development of a definition and theory of engineering intuition. Results: This study's result is an emergent definition of engineering intuition and a complementary framework called Leveraging Intuition Toward Engineering Solutions (LITES). LITES uniquely situates intuition as part of the problem-solving process among experienced engineering practitioners and describes how practitioners use their intuition. Conclusions: This work advances knowledge of the relationship between intuition and expertise in engineering education by providing a definition of engineering intuition and a framework describing intuition's role in engineering problem solving. This contribution furthers efforts to equip current and future engineers with the necessary skills to navigate existing and upcoming societal challenges.

“…Policymakers are frequently concerned about the impacts of their schemes as well as unforeseen unintended consequences. Hurteau et al (2020) point out that expert intuition is increasingly considered to be a valid form of knowledge. A trained expert can use intuition to verify the results of rational analysis as well as any alternate tools decision-making process.…”

Decision-making effectiveness is vital for government functioning and its administration. However, this greatly impacts the changing circumstances of uncertainty and ambiguity. Intuition offers a viable way forward by integrating it with rational thinking and decision-making. It has a scientific basis and can be developed as a skill. It has been found to be helpful to point out the way forward dealing with uncertainty, recognising patterns and handling information overloads. The challenge lies in how to harness this skill. In this paper, a number of ways are discussed to integrate intuition into the workplace, enabling the organisation to support this process and ultimately merge it into the day-to-day decision-making.
