This was a descriptive-correlation study. The population consisted of students of PNU of Tabriz. The sample consisted of 377 students selected randomly among all the students.

The results of the Pearson correlation coefficient showed that correlation coefficient between three styles of savvy-feeling, savvy-thinking, style of intuition-feeling and intellectual belief was -0.10, -0.02 and 0.23 respectively which is not statistically significant. There is a significant relationship between style of intuition–feeling and intellectual belief with a correlation coefficient of 0.23.
