The fact that, as a human, you can manipulate things in a particular way is resident in the being, it is not the power to ..... If what you contend were so a blade of grass has the power to bend in the wind, or if it is stiff enough to resist bending in the wind. Geez, if it were otherwise you'd need to explain why blood flows,why energy is transformed to ATP, and include the mechanisms for using it in muscles. No medial frontal cortical neuron has that capacity. Generalizing all processes to produce a 'you' is ridiculous since it is actually many yous or parts of within your physical sphere acting in specific ways in specific circumstances.
If one is trained to program one understands operations and processes particular to the computer and language on which one produces the program. Not having a computer one has access to those tools used to replace a computer for carrying out the assignment and execution of trails. The programs, design, and protocols are a set of experimental operations designed IAC with whatever rules you employ to produce a series of trials to which observers or energy are subjected. These in turn are recorded and processed by the analysis program appropriate to treating the results of what those conditions.
The rules you apply come from analysis of previous results in the area and are to be added to the body of knowledge there upon. That analysis is constrained by whatever results have been previously produced. No wiggle room, no intuition, no E participation in the producing of results.
As far as one's thought processes, they are constrained by data, theory, and findings absent E participation in the production thereof. One selects from whatever number of bins one requires to fit the design IAC the operations needed to produce a hypothesized result. The process produces a suite of operations unique to the problem being explored limited by the bounds of previous work. Librarian work, programmer work, instrumentation work, etc. are the tasks performed.
Now if that is intuition it requires a village to be realized. No individual has such information on hand. Yet the necessary information already exists to define and constrain one's experiment. The trick is to substitute research for intuition or guess and to follow a well defined protocol for experimentation.
What the experimenter has is the training and tools necessary to execute the process. Intuiting, guessing, fudging, praying, are not among them.
The judgements arrived at by executing the operations are defined by the existing knowledge and necessary evaluation and decision processes, perhaps a particular statistical method configured thus and so.
Those of us who do such things train for years to have the tools at hand for which to execute operational methods.
