[QUOTE="Corinnguard, post: 9157887, member: 7033886"] I like to think that an Insight check deals with critical thinking. When you are either alone or with one or more other individuals, you take note of what they say or do, and compare those with what you say, do and believe in. If the actions and words of the former agree with your own, you accept them with very little in the way of critiquing and analyzing. Otoh, if the actions and words of the former significantly differ from your own, then critiquing and analyzing are more likely to happen as you try to make sense of what they say and do. It's not so much a form of lie detection as it you are asking yourself 'does this make sense to me?' If it does make sense, then you have passed your Insight check with flying colors. ;) Cognitive dissonance, holding two or more lines of contradicting thought in your head, is likely to happen during this Insight check. I consider this skill to be a conscious one. Passive Insight is just another name for Intuition. ;) It's when your subconscious mind tells your conscious mind that it noticed something that slipped under the latter's radar. Did I pass my Insight check here? ;) [/QUOTE]
