Female intuition in economics and conscious leadership: a comprehensive integrative review of conceptual foundations, cultural moderators, and future directions.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The notion of female intuition has long been marginalized or misconstrued within economic and leadership discourse. Recent contributions from cognitive neuroscience, feminist economics, and organizational theory offer new insights into intuition as a nuanced form of embodied judgment, responsive to both ethical and contextual demands. In response to this gap, the present review systematically examines how this epistemic capacity is conceptualized, empirically explored, and shaped by institutional and cultural conditions. Objectives: Building on this foundation, this analysis articulates four interrelated objectives: (1) To define and integrate the construct of female intuition within economic and leadership domains; (2) To assess its influence on innovation, risk perception, and decision quality; (3) To explore cultural, structural, and neuropsychological moderators of its expression and legitimacy; (4) To propose a multidimensional framework grounded in feminist and neuroconstructivist epistemologies. Methods: A systematic and integrative protocol was applied to peer-reviewed literature published between 2000 and 2024 across Scopus, Web of Science, PsycINFO, PubMed, and EconLit. Boolean operators and controlled vocabulary (e.g., MeSH terms, APA Thesaurus descriptors) were used to ensure precision. Eligible studies addressed intuition, leadership, or decision-making through gendered lens. Data extraction included metadata (authorship, year, country), methodology, theoretical framing, and findings. Quality appraisal followed CASP (for qualitative designs), MMAT 2018 (for mixed methods), and AMSTAR 2 (for reviews). Thematic synthesis was complemented by bibliometric mapping using VOSviewer to identify citation clusters and emerging research fronts. Discussion: By confronting epistemic biases and expanding the discourse on intuitive cognition, this review contributes to a more inclusive understanding of leadership intelligence. Its findings offer theoretical grounding for future research, inform gender-sensitive educational practices, and support the design of economic policies that recognize cognitive diversity as a strategic asset.
