Description: Handbook of Research Methods on Intuition, Hardcover by Sinclair, Marta (EDT), ISBN 1782545980, ISBN-13 9781782545989, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Intuition, of course, has its place in the history of scientific thought but is notorious for its slippery nature, which can be, in some ways, antagonistic to the very spirit and process of science. Yet as an important aspect of human thought and perception, it is a research subject itself, albeit one that is difficult to analyze. This handbook, written by a group of cognitive scientists and psychologists, is an attempt to come to grips with this nebulous field of research and to establish some methodological guidelines. Cognitive systems and capabilities are discussed first, drawing attention to such interesting phenomena as expert intuition, and a comparative discussion of Eastern and Western approaches to the subject. The role of stress and emotions in intuitive processes is explored then, considering ways to evoke intuitive responses, and looking at some case studies of the use of intuition in decision making. Sections on experimental setup--trying to capture intuitive phenomena via the study of brain activity and self-reports--and on the qualitative approaches to this research are followed by an attempt to provide a grounded theory for the study of these phenomena and a discussion of the possibilities of using researcher's own expertise and intuition in their research.
