Where to find it
Practices on IX Coach that cite Conditions for Intuitive Expertise
- Defer heavily to base rates when entering a domain where you lack experience
In unfamiliar territory, the class distribution should almost entirely govern the forecast.
The Outside View
- Know when intuition is unreliable
Expert intuition is valid only when the domain has regular patterns and you’ve had feedback-rich experience in it.
Recognition-Primed Decision Making
- Override recognition and deliberate when the situation is genuinely novel
Flag situations that don’t quite fit a familiar pattern and switch from intuitive to analytical processing.
- Slow down for high-stakes, irreversible decisions
Match deliberation to the cost of being wrong: spend System 2 where reversal is hard.
