Systematic intuitions
Origin: Lat. systematĭcus, Gr. συστηματικός. Lat. mediev. intuitĭo, -ōnis
Hodara classifies this technique as informal, and indicates that its merits are in that it indicates aspects meant in reality and it gives place to new visions, although many of the informal appreciations are not taken as an immediate intersubjective verification. Furthermore,s objective is to configure answers or new meanings for diverse problems and aspects of reality, from perceptions and premonitions based on experience. It is characterized by being creative and systematic and represents an opportunity for collective or individual catharsis. It allows us to surpass myths and the rationality of the present. Furthermore, detects obsolete patterns of perception, beliefs, stereotypes and conceptions without foundation upon reality. It discriminates the inadequate limits in problem definition; in other words those arguments and beliefs that are taken as truths because of the strength they have gained through repetition, when they are questionable at heart. It serves to develop innovations, elaborate strategies of sensitization about the future and for the preparation of groups for the development of prospective studies. Its limitations are created by its dependence on the experience, creativity, knowledge and attitude of the prospective investigator. Its advantages are that it encourages creative thoughts and the overcoming of myths and assumptions. It compels us to think about a different world and implies a dynamic vision of reality.
