In common usage, intuitions lead us to believe things without being able to articulate evidence or reasons for those beliefs. In philosophy, the [[epistemology|epistemic]] credentials of various types of intuition may be investigated, or "intuition" may be used as a technical term to single out a particular type of mental state or propositional attitude.  Intuitions are distinguished from [[beliefs]], since we can hold beliefs which are not intuitive, or have intuitions for propositions that we know to be false.

In the [[philosophy]] of [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Modern_Philosophy Immanuel Kant], intuition is one of the basic [[cognitive]] faculties, equivalent to what might loosely be called [[perception]]. Kant held that our [[mind]] casts all of our external intuitions in the form of [[space]], and all of our internal intuitions ([[memory]], thought) in the form of time.
