"First choice is best choice for buying a house" That's the worst advice I've ever heard.
No, in that particular hypothetical example the first choice was the best choice. The point is that snap decisions are ironically more likely to work out when making complex decisions.
Well not exactly "first choice", but the choice that goes along with your intuition the most
If the valuation of the house's properties were right there is no way that's right. Must have been a flawed study.
To follow up, the hypothetical reason for this is because intuition is based off of emotion, which is driven by a large complex set of rules and conditions. Essentially, it's massively overloading to the conscious mind to process all the information that is crucial to the decision making process in buying a house, but our emotions usually derive from minutia we aren't always aware of. If you're happy in the house now, you'll probably be happy in it in the future.
Just clarifying on your initial statement. But yeah, I agree.
I'm glad I went to a good school, even though I had to pay more *intuition*.

I always thought of gut feelings as instincts. I've only felt it a couple times. I was in a gas station and something told me to get out now. I immediately dropped my stuff and left as quick as I could. The place was robbed right after and 2 people were killed. You'll know the feeling if you ever feel it
Yes, it's proven that the brain knows danger, even if you consciously don't.
Gut feeling is based upon prior knowledge.
And your brain stores all the information from every experience youve had. I have temporal lobe epilepsy and when I get a petit mal seizure, I remember forgotten dreams and situations from when I was as young as 4 years old.

Do you usually trust your gut? Or try and rationalize all of your decisions?

Lol!!
I know im late but replace the is to his
I try to rationalize everything I do, but if I get that gut feeling, I ALWAYS listen because its never wrong
I think both should be relied on, but if I had to pick one that's more trustworthy that would be logic. Logic is based on facts, reasoning, evidence, rules and calculation whereas intuition is based upon wild guesses, emotions, feelings (the kind of stuff that could make you more loveable but also the kind of stuff that could land you in a lot of trouble).I think both have their place, but you could think of it as the difference between taking a genuine medication and a placebo medication.
@@aditya6201 I do not think that the placebo comparison is accurate. Intuition works with information from the "background". Even if you consciously cannot see what your intuition's logic is, it doesn't mean there isn't a logic there. For example, many people experience other people's emotions, intentions or even background motivations. IT is because they experience it in their own body and emotions like it is their own, except it isn't. It's like a sponge. That is happening through the mirror neurons. Intuition is not 100% true all the time, but nor is logic, as long as you do not have all the pieces of the puzzle. Your logic might be correct with the given fragments of information you have, but as long as you don't have the whole picture you cannot use it for the end result, so you either stop action or go along with intuition. Also, in the way you cultivate your rational mind, you can cultivate your connection to your intuition and "educate" yourself on how your intuition works in order to develop it, by being mindful of yourself - your thoughts, your emotions, body sensations. What happened inside you during the moment your intuition was correct? What happened inside you when your intuition was wrong? Can you see some differences? etc, explore. if you do it, at some point your brain gets more and more information through meta-cognition and you will have a better intuition about your own intuition. intuitionception
I was told that while taking a multiple choice test, you should go with your first instinct. I learned this after I failed the test.
Einstein on intuition: When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come close to the conclusion that the gift of imagination has meant more to me than any talent for absorbing absolute knowledge. All great achievements of science must start from intuitive knowledge. I believe in intuition and inspiration.... At times I feel certain I am right while not knowing the reason." Thus, his famous statement that, for creative work in science, "Imagination is more important than knowledge" (Calaprice, 2000, 22, 287, 10).
kzhead.info/sun/iJxtntx7qoOmqKs/bejne.html
as someone who practices introspection and pays a lot, like a lot lot of attention to my inside, I noticed this too. I decided at some point that I will trust my intuition (despite many fears internally telling me that I shouldn't), and sometimes it's a silent voice, and sometimes it's like yelling at me and I simply cannot ignore it. What I can also tell you is that the more you trust it, the more it appears and the more you can develop it. Like any other thing, you start to learn the sensations and all the ways it manifests itself. The last part where it is yelling at me despite any aparent reason (sometimes defying my own conscious logic) is what I can relate to with Einstein. It's so weird, yet so true.
wow. this video was fascinating as usual. i was really surprised about how most people are more satisfied when they trust their gut feeling in making decisions. I'm going to try doing that more often :)
Just a thought; is it possible that people who went used instinct rather than thinking over the choices are happier because "ignorance is bliss"? If you think through all the pros and cons, it makes sense you'd be less satisfied simply because you're aware of the cons and what you'd be missing out from the other options, even if you think you still made the best choice. But if you don't do any careful thinking and just go with your instinct, you're not really aware of what you're missing out on from the other offers/ how poor your choice may be compared to the alternatives, so naturally you dont think about it and are just happier.

@@saeedbaig4249 bro I went down that rabbithole and I almost went insane. I just go with my gut instinct now. I don't care anymore to be so informed about every tiny detail. while we think so abruptly, life passes our own eyes. when there are important decisions, sure, but when there ain't, it's ok. i go to grocery store and I see an ice cream I like, I buy it, I won't go in that scientific project anymore about what other icecreams are there, do I get best value price, etc, that's insanity if you ask me
so interesting to find you here. also am glad that you decided that 5 years back, I know your channel and with that brain capacity, it's ok that you made that decision lol
I really loved this video but "gut feelings" should be called what they are: Heuristics. Heuristics may be faster at identifying patterns but they can be fooled in really interesting ways. It would have been cool if you went deeper into some of the faults as to why these fail.
So you're saying gut feelings can be fooled?
miss physics of course, they are essentially things that are true more often than not. See Agency Detection, when we hear a noise we often get a feeling that it's caused by an agent. This is an adaptive heuristic that serves us well generally. It's saved our skin in dangerous times even if it's sometimes only the wind, for example
yeah I guess when you think about it most of the time the conclusions we jump to even if it's just our subconscious are often wrong. The problem is I tend to never trust my gut feeling and in the end you just end up thinking way too much about unimportant things.
Exactly. It would've been nice if they explored the actual psychology and science behind why heuristics are extremely limited in utility outside a few inadequate examples, such as that, while it's still helpful at times, it's an evolutionary left over from when assuming the noise in the bushes was a lion, regardless of the reality, meant survival, but it's *ASAP*science. They don't to comprehensiveness.
A good example is that card example they give in the video. Your body started sensing a pattern after 10 cards but it is easy to see how some random luck could easily trick you. If the first two decks had more bad cards, but through random chance you drew more good cards early on, you would be totally fooled.
My intuition tells me to sit in my room watching and making KZhead videos all day. You tell me if it's trustworthy or not.
ziljin not
That's laziness speaking to ya mate
That's not your intuition. Deep down you know that you shouldn't do that. THAT is your intuition.
The making if you can survive of that sure go ahead. But the watching part maybe not so much . =D
nice joke
Today, I wanted to walk to 711, but I had this really bad feeling and I almost started to cry. Sometimes I take a different path to my house, but for some reason I had a feeling that something wasn't right, so I made sure that there was always someone around me that I could see while walking to and from 711. When my mum got home later that day, she had told me that when I had left for 711, there was a guy on that other path that was suspicious, and he was waving around a gun. Then the police shot him. It happened today, actually. It happened while I was walking home. I will never deny my gut, and you shouldn't either. I was going to take that path today too, but i'm so happy that I didn't.
still better than the heart of the cards
William White #bestcomment!
William White that where you're wrong.
Each of these videos have no real answer there is always a "but"
Fayyadh suliman Because real life is rarely black and white, it's usually a bunch of shades of gray. There aren't a whole heck of a lot of absolutes, and the more complex a particular topic is, the less likely you are to find a definitive answer. (btw I mean there are usually "yes in this situation or if you mean this, but no in that situation or if you mean that." so basically no universal yes and no, just a lot of "it depends")
Kate Speaks Then wouldn't it be less click baity title? One that doesn't lend itself easily to assuming that their is a black and white being answered in this video?
Fayyadh suliman if it was a simple yes or no there would be no need for a video
pole y no
I trust this more than anyone or anything. When the vibe is good, definitely everything is fine. If the vibe is bad, definitely nothing works out. Proven for the past 20 yrs.
Bottom line: We know intuition, but we can't explain it.
Shay Mischief & Music works every time
He just explained it
True, until you realize that psychology exists.
No, we can totally explain it.
What about in a test question, when you don't know the answer and just have a feeling that one of them is the correct one,, though another option seems like it makes more sense, is it better to go for your intuition???? (maybe ou had seen that question before, but it's in your subconcious)
In that specific situation, most likely it is not intuition you are dealing with, but just some emotion influenced idea. And if thats the case, go for the one that "makes more sense".
+brualdasil2 If you, genuinely, have no idea about the question/topic and feel like you've never even heard anything remotely. Then you can't have a "gut feeling" about the correct answer. The "gut feeling" is actual knowledge inside of your brain, that is processed by said brain, before you even become conscious of it. In other words, your brain already knows the answer, but you still have to become aware of that fact and piece everything together, consciously. In those situations, you're likely just "feeling" something, anything about a certain answer and think that that feeling represents actual knowledge. It could be a certain word (like "horse" and you might like horses), so the answer seems to be more correct than answers with different words (like "frog", when you dislike frogs). So, it's important to know in what kind of situation you're in. Are you educated on a certain topic, have you been in a similar situation before, do you actually understand what the problem is? If you're completely clueless, then chances are, that you can just guess anything and live with your uninformed decision (maybe you get lucky). That's why it's advisable to do at least some studying, before tests. Obviously, that's harder when it comes to decisions in life.
I always go with my intuition because it has been correct every time for me.

You should do a video on quantum physics
Oh god please no. Watch Veritasium for that.

+lightsidemaster I don't know why you reacted to my suggestion with "oh god please no"... but why don't you want AsapScience to make a video on the subject?
Otix Because they don't have the education or the intellect to do that. Even physicists have a hard time fully grasping Quantum Physics, so these guys who sometimes have a hard time grasping relatively simple topics and often leave out extremely important information or interpret graphs and studies wrong, are not qualified at all to make a video about Quantum Physics. Maybe they could do a solid video if they asked an expert on the topic, but who knows
+lightsidemaster gotcha
Thinking Fast and Slow by Kahneman is a GREAT book about decisions
that is the second person who recommended that book. I shall buy it. wait a second... you said it was a great book on decisions... but not a great book.
But what if I don't know whether or not I should make the decision to buy it?
Try the local library. I saw this recommendation, searched my library's online catalog, and requested it. The library will call and let me know when it is available for me to pick up. Fortunately, I live in Maine. We have Minerva. Minerva will allow one to order books the local does not have from any linked library. Good stuff!

Well my intuition tells me I shouldn't study for the art final as that subject is just useless anyway q.q
Well maybe that's just your lazyness talking to you.
I am sorry lad, I just finished my exams, good luck
same here :(
FYI 95% of things you learn from school are forgotten once you become an adult. Tests and examinations are not there to teach you certain subjects but rather, to imrpove your memory skills and harden your ability to persevere no matter how uninteresting the task
Well kinda contradictory if improving one's memory skill leads to forgetting 95% of everything learned and well the point of art as a subject is making students more creative and giving them freedoms at least according to how things are here in Germany and all we've done thus far is art history and inducing dread and stress about a subject most people won't need for anything later
I guess the "intuition doesn't work on empathy" point doesn't apply to empaths. I can feel emotion. I've accurately guessed that people are hiding anger or sadness because I could feel it almost like it was a perfume cloud following them around.
kzhead.info/sun/iJxtntx7qoOmqKs/bejne.html
I think it still applies. You described how you perceive better and quicker. But in that part of the video, they’re referring to how we make decisions, and even if we perceived it faster, it is better to analyse the situation before doing something
Hear me out. First of all. How much time do you spend ALONE in NATURE??????? When was the last time u spent time alone in NATURE? It's very important. It took me a long time to get to where I am now. Empaths can also be CHOSEN ONES/ or Lightworkers- and why not? PLEASE spend time alone in nature- you will get answers to your problems.- You can save lives- predict accidents- prevent bad things from happening to people. Understand- YOU ARE WOKE- YOU ARE THE POWERFUL Force that EVER EXISTED. - don't give your POWER away to low life people who say something deliberately to trigger you. Use the Power Almighty Good God/ Universe gave you. Accept it. It's YOUR trueself. All this entertainment industry - pornography is all a Diversion and distraction from finding your life purpose. Your insrincs will guide you - on who to stay away from- who NOT to tell your life goals/ wk end holiday plans- not everyone is worthy - your POWER is growing day by day- many have discovered their superpowers- some can move objects with eyes- others hypnotise- many can control electricity- Hindu - muslim- Christian- Jewish- Sikh- Mormen- don't matter your past/ family history or background- these are ALL labels.
'Blink' by Malcolm Gladwell is also a good book about intuition. I highly recommend it.

Thank you so much for taking the time out of your lives to spread knowledge like this to the public. I have been enjoying your videos for ages and always look forward to them! :)
I always follow my heart and never had any regrets. I trust my intuition 100%. I usually rationalize after I made a decision and look back to why it was the better choice =) It's quite interesting!
That's really cool. I always sort of felt something like this was true, but never knew how to articulate it!

Jessica Jung wow youre sooo smart, you can solve basic 2 digit 4th grade multiplication in you head... I'm so impressed...
i still dont know the answer
+TheBanjoShow The comment wasn't meant to impress anyone but to show how simply it can be done. The fact that you even imply that it might be a difficult thing, suggests that you're very pleased with yourself, because you could solve it. Don't be arrogant, when you can solve very simple math. There are a lot of people who can't even do that or don't want to. And that's fine too. It sucks though, when there's some wannabe "genius", that devalues the efforts of people trying to help others. Have a nice day and try not to fall from your high horse.

Thank you for this wonderful video. I appreciate you filling my head full of knowledge . 🤔
Each major decision in my life had one very clear answer in my gut, heart, and logic. I visited many colleges, but knew the right one when I saw it. I didn't need to justify it. It had all the right things. The same thing happened with choosing a career path. I tried many out but only one was the very clear answer in every way. Now I'm buying a home. It's pretty clear I want this one for almost every reason. I haven't had to worry about my gut instinct being wrong because it's more of screaming voice shouting, "Pick this one!"
What was your career path, out of curiosity?
I don't have it as strongly as you describe, to me it is more the opposite. A "DEFINITLY NOT THIS ONE!" voice.

Intuition is also interfered with by biases and faith since it bypasses reason and conscious thought and will always point the wrong way in cases where bias or faith is involved.
What if the intuition is faith though or the bias, how would you know it was either?

Hey I was wondering if you guys could do a video on the science of kids being picky and whether or not it's a good thing to do the "if you don't eat what I made, you don't eat dinner" kind of training on them. I've heard that when kids are growing their body will actually convert a majority of foods into what they need and it's not a super, crazy big deal if they arent eating healthy all the time. Love the videos by the way.
My intuition is telling me that there's more to a situation than I'm able to understand because it's far away. Because I don't have info, I need to stop worrying and take a step back. I don't need to be a loony toon. I need to trust that it will work itself out in the best outcome possible. TY for the reminder to pay more attention to my gut. It leads me in the right way almost every time.👍
Love the video ! Thanks Asapscience for inspiring me to start producing my own content

what about a video on what is more dangerous between an acid and a base for human beings? maybe their effects on the skin, in blood etc
both are dangerous at same strengh, and kinda do same damage on you.
yes i know, but they have different effects
not on biological level, they destroy amino acid. The only difference is how treatement need. if acid burn need a base, if base burn need a acid.
I feel like i never really learn anything I will remember when I watch these videos. I'm really not hating, though. I feel like they just say what a bunch of studies has said, that isn't something I have never known before.
Namita R same but hey I hate doing research myself so I rely on these kinds of videos for food for thought
Intuition changes the more information you get about a certain topic. Its more like a statistical answer to a question you do not know the answer to, without knowing the source of the statistical information. Its like a meta analysis study done on studies from which you don't know the validity of the results or how they were conducted, but nevertheless is better than guessing blindly.
On Math problems in School My very great teacher taught us to trust our intuition and become natural in solving problems because thinking and asking question makes you slower and it could become a habit.
Shout out to all my Infj's as we have a tendency to put our intuition on a pedestal.
Bigger shout out to the people who know the MBTI is the horoscope of personality psychology and instead swim in the O.C.E.A.N!!!
Custos I understand people can have more than one fixed personality realistically, but there's is always a default personality that comes naturally. I also understand that humans are far more complicated than just the Mbti. However, it doesn't mean that the test doesn't have a touch of truth to it.
yaaaaass! I was really hoping someone would comment this hahah
sony so There is no such thing as a default personality. That literally goes against the concept of personality itself. If it helps, the best definition we have in psychology for what personality is is "a unique and relatively stable pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors across time and situations." The words "default" and "unique" don't play nice with each other. The MBTI is considered the horoscope of personality for tons of reasons including its limited number of "types," that it uses categories at all, it defines each personality type in terms flattering to the person, doesn't delve into the negative side of personality such as how neurotic you may be, the scores it uses are arbitrary (FYI, I score as INTP, INTJ, INFP, and INFJ depending how I answer 4 questions separately. That shouldn't completely change my results were they valid), and it doesn't tell you anything in context to other people, e.g. it doesn't tell you if you're level of extroversion is objectively average or above/below the average person. I get that the MBTI is easy to understand, which is why it's so popular, and that it feels like it says things about you, but each type's description is literally constructed in the same way horoscopes are through flattering, vague phrasing.
Custos I don't think comparing horoscopes to the Mbti is fair. Horoscopes are extremely broad they can't be taken seriously at any level. (only for pure entertainment) The Mbti uses a bit of logic, and pattern. A reasonable person knows that the human mind is far too complicated to just say this is all i am. I know no person is a cookie - cutter in general. However, it doesn't mean we don't have the ability to lean towards certain patterns of behavior. Everyone can and at some point in life has been every personality on the mbti and more. We do what we can to thrive in this world. If we have to become an extrovert than we adapt.I don't think we would survive as a species if we had one set of behaviors. Honestly we can't just chalk up our personalities to a test you're right about that.
Sometimes theres a logical reasoning to why we get a feeling of intuition. Other times it's a feeling out of no where that we don't understand. Like I get bad or good feelings out of no where sometimes when there is nothing in my environment that would influence that. I am still a firm believer that there is something deeper we do not understand about intuition. Maybe it's spiritual, evolutionary or whatever.
I'm very intuitive, but I usually analyze, then make a decision with what I feel is right.
At the part with the cards that are good and bad, that study is talked about in the book Blink and it goes into more detail and its super interesting.

This video touched the subject only on a superficial level. How do you explain those "intuitions" that save people`s lives? For example, I decide to cancel a flight because something in me tells me to do it, and then on the next day I see on the news that the same flight had an accident and all the people inside the plane died.
You made that story somehow sound casual. I understand the point you were trying to make but wow missed a plane ride from a gut feeling and the plane crashed. That is some intense sh*t.
maybe I'm wrong, but that's something completly different, because 1. that feeling you're talking about is not reliable. many cases like these exist and if you go on and test that gut feeling, it was mostly not reliable. the case you give suggests something of a sixth sense, that many people lack, but if that feeling is actually reliable and why it is hasn't been(at least to my knowledge) proven and would have to be proven in the future.
confirmation bias
SuperAvocado But do we know how many people cancel flights and nothing happens? This could be happening everyday and because nothing happens we never hear of it. Could be just chance that something actually happens.
Lisa Huffaker ya I'd first have to see a study/ statistic of a person that really was right with that gut feeling...
I always have a good gut, and I should listen to what my instincts tell me. But, I end up doubting myself, and then I get so pissed at myself when I find out that my original thoughts were correct.
I have a really good intuition and still love check lists lol using thinking and intuition is in my opinion the best thing, at least if you are fairly good at both
Spock says follow logic... so its logical to assume to follow logic over gut feeling
1:06 you had to put a meme in there, you just had to
I thought it would be a meme,then he said sadness💔
One of my problems is my gut decision is often rapidly followed by a counter-argument, to the point where I can't even remember which one came first.
Ohh my gosh i feel like i requested this video a while ago and here it is YES yeaaaa GREAT JOB !!!!!! YES it is about pattern recongintion and the processing of very very tiny details ! Such small details many people do not detect. This is GREAT!!!! YEA SCIENCE!
do a video about tinnitus
BettyHorrid I have that. I hate it
Make a video about why incest isn't bad and shouldn't be illegal
Producing a child should be illegal, it raises risk of deformities.
JaapEVG Those who engage in incest have something mentally wrong with them. We are programmed to not be attracted to those related to us for reproduction purposes, so if someone is attracted to their relative then something is wrong with them either mentally or biologically
***** Well Ok. But should it be illegal even though the individuals are using protection? Kinda unfair. And what should be the punishment then?
jktomas Yes, because the chance of an offspring is still possible. Saying it should only be illegal of a child is born isn't practical, because you will absolutely have people still producing offspring whether on purpose or on accident, so it should be outlaw outright. Accidents still happen even with protection. Penalty would have to be decided by the states, I guess. Jail time is too severe but I'd understand it, but a fine or having their child taken is another.
jktomas It's not crazy, its about what is biologically/morally right and what isn't. With two relatives, the chances are much higher and they are doing so KNOWING that there is a more than likely chance their child will be deformed. With other parents, I do think they should proceed with the same caution as just not having a child if they know there's a good chance it will be deformed. As in if they do get pregnant, alternatives should be heavily considered. Should it be illegal for the non related couple? No, because they aren't related, and they aren't purposely going out of their way to try and produce a deformed offspring. I'm saying incest should be illegal on not just a moral but biological reason.
If this interests you, you can read "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Dr. Daniel Kahneman, and "Sources of Power" and/or "Streetlights and Shadows" by Dr. Gary Klein. Both are excellent at breaking down bias, analysis and intuition using relatively easy-to-understand language and concepts, supported by research.
I don't know why, but my gut always seems right. I'm never willing to trust it, but it seems checking just proves its point. Every time I remember having a gut feeling, its always been right.
I dont watch this channel for non dry erase drawn chess boards!
could you do a video explaining trypophobia?
well for few study on it, it is mostly a biological revulsion, like poop or bad smell odor. Not really a fear itself, has it still be add in any official phobia book.
+Crusender oh cool, thanks!
***** maybe you should read my comment, explaining it is not a fear.
***** finding something repulsive is not a fear, in your comment you clearly give a description of someone finding it repulsive, like someone finding spider repulsive, it not same fear of them, they dont fear it because is repulsive, fear go beyond that, a aragnophobe cant describe a spider but you can for your "trypophobia". Im again people using wrong term for description of something, making the word lose it meaning.
I believe we should trust our intuition, because it is basically the only 'weapon' we have in the decision moment. We have no way of predicting the future, so to 'feel' the right decision will never reveal to be the wrong one, because we will never know the outcome of the other ones. So, if you have 'that feeling' just go with it; if you think about it, you will never have a way of regretting it. And be carefoul: intuition doesn't mean random.
One of the best/useful episodes yet, in my opinion.
Why the crying Jordan face?!? LMAO
that last man has a fked up arm
Check something out. If you use software to offset your voice as you speak, it becomes harder and harder to talk...until it doesn't. After you reach that point, you can (almost) always automatically filter your own voice as noise. Speech Jammer (I don't have association with their app) does this well. Changing the offset changes the result, which helps to train your brain, but the very slight offset is super effective. Starting at 1/10 delay it only takes a few seconds to lose concentration. Going up, you naturally slow down, but decreasing becomes harder until a point.
I was literally looking for a "intuition" video yesterday!
when almost every comment says "first"
first reply
Science, always making excuses for things they don't really understand.
JR&R could you elaborate?
Kellen McGurkin don't feed the troll
Kellen McGurkin It's beyond your comprehension.
Omg I got that book and your book 1 week ago my moms giving them to me for my birthday and christmas
Gotta find the right balance between intuition and rationality. Both are different aspects of your mind and are tools for different use cases.
Last time I was this early... Trump jokes were still a thing.
For anyone looking to delve deeper into this subject, check out Daniel Kahneman's book 'Thinking Fast and Slow'. It's pretty in-depth but it will change the way you think about thinking, forever.
I have really good intuition. Most in choosing cards for example I'm very good at picking what packs of Pokemon cards have EXs I lay then out and look at one then the other and get a feeling of which is best. I don't always get this feeling though or I might be feeling it more then once at a time... I use this in simple card games to like go fish being able to pick a card that matches one in my hand if the deck is layer out. I've only don't it 2xs but this works for lotteries as well.
maybe you have a form of synthesia, so a part of your brain your unaware of is able to recognise these parts in a few seconds
