Intuitive Decision Making under Conditions of Deep Uncertainty
Abstract
biases, the analysis demonstrates how intuitive thinking enables rapid, experience-based decisions that avoid groupthink and complement analytical methods. The study highlights intuitive training as a way to mitigate subjective influences, ultimately arguing that intuition remains a
vital tool for time-constrained, information-scarce crisis scenarios.
