Resort to intuition in philosophy is a very common phenomenon. Philosophers often build their own philosophy and reasoning with intuition. In the actual philosophical,the theory which is not intuitively accepted is generally considered incomplete. In this sense, the philosopher of intuition as a source of evidence. However, the advent of experimental philosophy break this traditional view, the evidence of the status of the experimental philosopher intuition challenges.This paper mainly focuses on the researches of the intuition problems in experimental philosophy. On the one hand,the rapid development of science and technology,especially the emergence and development of neuroscience and cognitive science have a huge impact on contemporary philosophy. On the other hand, some philosophers argue that research methods of experimental philosophy is a threat to the traditional methods of philosophical studies. As to experimental philosophy movement,some philosophers hold opposite views. However, experimental philosophy uses the science experimental methods to investigate traditional philosophical problems, which extends the study of traditional territory of philosophy. So it is a new exploration of philosophy development.Through the analysis of typical case studies in experimental philosophy intuition problems and the examination of the reliability of intuition, which belong to not only cognitive science and metaphilosophy,it is also related to the philosophy and methodology issues. Despite its lack of philosophical experimental methods, but how to adapt and master the scientific experiment methods to complement the traditional philosophical methods and adapt to the development of contemporary philosophy trend. It should be worth for the philosophers to pay particular attention.With the development of science and technology, which will give more support and help to our study. Research on human cognition and intuition generation process of the formation mechanism will not only stay on a purely philosophical speculation, and experimental studies on philosophical intuition, in a sense, it is a way of cognitive science. Therefore, the study of intuition should fully learn some of the results of scientific research and research methods, in particular, from the cognitive science approach, they can provide a more solid basis for protection for our intuition reliability studies. The experimental philosophy has made efforts in this regard, it will give people more expectations. According to the Jury Theorem,once we appreciate that philosophy is in a position to utilize the concurring intuitions of a group,this may considerably add to the evidential value in the philosophy of the intuitional method.
