Popis: | Over 50 years of research on cognitive style has converged on the importance of individual differences in use of intuition and analysis. This program of research is characterized, however, by two incompatible perspectives about the relation between intuition and analysis. The distinction concerns whether intuition and analysis are opposite poles of a single dimension or whether they are orthogonal constructs. Two studies report meta-analytic investigations of the relation between intuition and analysis. A meta-analysis of the existing research base (k = 80; n = 27 501) showed that intuition and analysis are uncorrelated. A second meta-analysis of combinations of subscales from different cognitive style measures (n = 511) supported the results of the first meta-analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis also supported the existence of two uncorrelated constructs. Overall, the findings support the view that intuition and analysis are independent constructs, rather than opposite ends of a bipolar continuum. In addition, the findings suggest measures of analysis or rationality are not interchangeable. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
