![]() There are at least three schools of thought here, not at all incompatible, in my opinion: And so would they, if you try to speak their language without having acquired it over many years (and most specially, the younger years). As a simple example, when you hear a foreign speaker, you "just know" that some words "sound" wrong. Intuition is deeply embedded knowledge you have acquired. If they are related, how does scientific community explain 'intuition'?.You're correct, ESP is not accepted by the community, and presuming, for the sake of argument, it could be true, the scientific experiments should be trivial to be done and replicated. Is 'intuition' related to 'extrasensory perception' (ESP)? As far as I know, ESP is not accepted by the scientific community but I could not conclude the same about 'intuition'.A Bayes factor meta-analysis of Bem’s ESP claim. Dual-process theories of higher cognition: Advancing the debate. (As Artem notes in his comment.) References We are simply not consciously aware of the underlying heuristic machinery's workings. While ESP is non-deterministic almost by definition, dual process theory does not take a position on determinism. You can find a number of references about heuristics in this question. ![]() ![]() Heuristics can have multiple subtly different meanings depending on field and context, but broadly speaking, a heuristic is a decision process which is usually right. This account explains intuition and intuitive thinking in terms of different heuristics, which should be familiar. The dual process theory model, which entered the public consciousness with Daniel Kahneman's popular Thinking, Fast and Slow, proposes that reasoning happens by two discrete "paths": the deliberate and reasoned System 2, and the fast and intuitive System 1. Outside the heydays of Skinnerian radical behaviorism, the notion of intuition has been consistently present in the cognitive sciences.Īn influential modern model of intuitive thinking is called dual process theory (e.g., Evans and Stanovich, 2013). While ESP certainly retains its pseudoscience status (e.g., Rouder and Morey, 2011), intuition and intuitive thinking has been used in the psychological literature in evolving ways over the years. No, intuition is not related to ESP in modern cognitive science.
