This study aimed to describe the characteristics of intuitive thinking of junior high school students who have impulsive and reflexive cognitive style for solving 3D object problem based on Polya stages. This research was a qualitative descriptive study. The subject method is purposive technique. Data collection used problem-solving tests, interviews, documentation, and field notes. The result showed that: (1) Student with the impulsive cognitive style used intrinsic certainty for an understanding problem, extrapolative ness for planning problem solving, perseverance for solving a problem, and globality thinking for rechecking. (2) The student with the reflexive cognitive style used intuitive thinking of selfevidence for an understanding problem, extrapolative ness for planning problem solving, perseverance and implicitness for solving a problem, and not apply intuitive thinking for rechecking.
