المعنى
To trust one's intuition.
خلفية ثقافية
In Norwegian work culture, which is very egalitarian, 'magefølelse' is often used as a valid reason to pause a project, even if the data looks okay. Across Scandinavia, there is a high level of social trust. Trusting your 'gut' about a person is often seen as a reliable social tool. While Americans also use 'gut feeling,' it is often framed more as a 'risk-taking' tool, whereas in Norway it's more about 'safety and correctness.' In Japan, 'Hara' (the belly) is considered the center of one's being. While 'magefølelse' isn't a direct translation, the cultural importance of the belly is shared.

If you explain too much logic after saying you have a 'magefølelse', it loses its meaning. The point is that it's NOT logical.
