Question

After gathering extensive information about the colleges she was interested in attending, Krista let the information "incubate" outside her conscious awareness for several days. This provided time for her decision to be potentially enhanced by:___________a. intuition.b. a critical period.c. an algorithm.d. confirmation bias.

Answer 1

Letter A is the correct answer.

Intuition is the opposite of conscious reasoning and is defined as an effortless thought that comes from instinctive feeling. When Krista decides to make a decision outside her conscious awareness, she makes sure her decision is based on what feels right. Thus, we can say that her decision was potentially enhanced by intuition.
