Gut Feeling: Difference between revisions

* The concept is discussed in one story of the [[Starfleet Corps of Engineers]] as something P8 "Pattie" Blue has learnt to respect, due to influence from the other races she works with:

{{quote| Though she knew she'd be checking out other facilities, Pattie had a good feeling about this one. One thing she'd learned from softs was to trust intuition. More times than she cared to recall, one of her crewmates had said something along the lines of "I have a bad feeling about this," and the feeling had proved to be an accurate barometer of the situation. As she walked down the corridor, she fingered the pouch containing the datachip. Yes, I definitely have a good feeling about this.}}

* In [[Star Trek Department of Temporal Investigations]], Agent Dulmur has one of these regarding a connection between a temporal anomaly from the previous year and the vortex phenomenon he's currently investigating. His senior partner Lucsly advises against "gut feelings", saying that everything their Department deals with is counter-intuitive anyway. Nonetheless, Lucsly doesn't entirely dismiss Dulmur's insight, but insists on waiting until he has supporting evidence.

* Finally, the concept is discussed in [[Star Trek Cast No Shadow]], in which Elias Vaughn is frustrated when his superior dismisses gut feelings.
