| Description: | For many years I have been associated with an approach to the study of intuitive thinking, called Heuristics and Biases, which focuses on the biases and illusions that are associated with the processes of intuitive thought. In recent years, a seemingly competing approach to the study of intuition has developed, called Naturalistic Decision Making, which focuses on the intuitions of experts doing what they do best. I will be reporting on an effort to understand the flaws and the marvels of intuitive thinking within a common psychological analysis.
