THE ROLE OF INTUITION
IN DECISION-MAKING
INTUITION
represents judgments, insights, or decisions that “come to mind
on their own, without explicit awareness of the evoking cues and
of course without explicit evaluation of the validity of these cues.

Page 17 of 20
A MODEL OF INTUITION
Holistic hunch
judgment that is based on a
subconscious integration of
information stored in memory

Automated experiences
choice based on a familiar
situation and a partially
subconscious application of
previously learned information
related to that situation
