  Edwin de Wit commented on idea #1626.

There we said we have three types of knowledge or three categories of knowledge. have our statements, which are our explicit knowledge. We can express fully in words. We have intuitions, which are know how skills we know how to do it, but

we cannot articulate it fully in words but we can approximate it and then the third category is our drives which are completely unconscious knowledge

We have no idea what's driving it, but they make themselves known to our consciousness via our feelings.

Deutsch uses the terms explicit, inexplicit, and unconscious.

Are you saying intuitions are synonymous with inexplicit knowledge, or are you saying they’re an example of it?

Are you saying drives are synonymous with unconscious knowledge, or are you saying they’re an example of it?

Synonymous indeed. In a previous video I labeled Deutsch's terms to make them easier to discuss and get a better sense for. You're correct that the specific mapping I use is:
Statements = explicit knowledge
Intuitions = inexplicit knowledge
Drives = unconscious knowledge
