This document defines intuition as knowledge or belief obtained without reason or perception. It describes three types of intuition: core intuition about life, subject-specific intuition in areas like science and ethics, and social intuition about other people. Intuition plays a big role in everyday life when we reason and perceive. Reliability of intuition increases when it matches reason, experience, and the intuitions of others. The conclusion is that all ways of knowing like intuition can both further and hinder knowledge, so we must test them against each other to find the truth.

Intuition How does it work, how does it not work & how can we support it with other WoKs.
Definition Knowledge or belief obtained neither by reason nor by perception. Instinctive knowledge or belief A hunch or unjustified belief
Three different types Core intuition: - Our most essential intuitions about, life & basically everything. Subject-specific intuition: - Intuitions in several areas of knowledge, such as science & ethics. Social Intuition: - Our intuitions about other people. That is what we are going to focus on
When do we use our intuition? Intuition plays a big role in our everyday life When reasoning is used .( we use our intuition when we use perception) So the both depend on intuition. That means we can not have only reason or perception without our intuition .
How much can we rely on our intuition? If your intuition matches with reason & experience as well as others intuitions, then its probably more reliable than if they do not. Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SsccRkLLzU
Conclusion All of our knowledge tools are double edged. Can both contribute to our knowledge and be an obstacle to it. To establish the truth we must test one against the other and not rely on one only Ways of knowing.
