In cognitive science and philosophy of mind, what are "intuitive models," and how do they characterize a type of reasoning?
I'm reading about dual-process theories of reasoning. System 1 is often described as fast, intuitive, and model-based, while System 2 is slow and logical. But what exactly is an "intuitive model"? Is it like a mental simulation (e.g., imagining gears turning), a prototype (a typical bird), or a pattern recognized via heuristics? How do these models differ from explicit beliefs or arguments? Are they necessarily non-linguistic? I need a clear philosophical and cognitive characterization.
