Intuitive Vs. Reflective Beliefs
Intuitive beliefs defined in the architecture of the mind, formulated in an intuitive mental lexicon. Higher-order or "reflective" propositional attitudes are provided by other beliefs that describe the source of the reflective belief as reliable, or that provide explicit arguments in favour of the reflective belief.
Origin
The framework has roots in Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman's landmark 1974 Science paper cataloguing the mental shortcuts that distort rational judgment. Psychologist Keith Stanovich and Richard West introduced the "System 1 / System 2" labels in 2000 to distinguish fast automatic from slow deliberate reasoning. Kahneman synthesised the full research programme in Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011), bringing the dual-process framework to popular audiences worldwide.
