Most of the time our brains are operating unconsciously on system 1 which controls our automatic, unconscious, and emotional response to situations and stimuli. System 1 relies heavily on our instinct and intuition.
Since our culture has an increased level of visual awareness, where we are constantly being stimulated by images, we perceive a lot of visuals subconsciously, compartmentalizing them. Our brains are constantly trying to relate what we see to something we already know, even when we aren't aware. In that sense, our intuition functions as an internal algorithm, trying to create order through connections.
Everyone is capable of intuition but, being aware and observant heightens it. There is a strong correlation between women and intuition. I believe this stems from the fact that women need to be constantly aware of their surroundings for their safety. By surveying themselves and their environment repeatedly they naturally adapt a keen sense to pattern deviations.
Intuition is our evolved form of pattern recognition. We create cognitive bias by recognizing systematic patterns of deviation from norm or rational judgment. Applying intuition creates a stigma because it’s seen as carless since it plays into our bias and inherent biology, but is our bias inherently bad? Or do they reflect our individual experiences and the resilience of human adaptability?
I can generalize that most people have become disheartened by logic and reason, and are looking for new paradigms prioritizing restorative, regenerative, and most importantly human-focused practices. I believe leaning into our intuitions more and not always relying on facts will generate the solutions we seek.
I will start my research by observing and recording people's cognitive biases like apophenia and implicit association. From gathering this data I think I will begin to notice thought patterns within their recognition and associations of visuals and word tests.
