Instinctive \In*stinc"tive\, a. [Cf. F. instinctif.]
Of or pertaining to instinct; derived from, or prompted by,
instinct; of the nature of instinct; determined by natural
impulse or propensity; acting or produced without reasoning,
deliberation, instruction, or experience; spontaneous.

Each grace appropriate. --Mason.
[1913 Webster]

some absent friends? --Bp. Hall.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The terms instinctive belief, instinctive judgment,
instinctive cognition, are expressions not ill adapted
to characterize a belief, judgment, or cognition,
which, as the result of no anterior consciousness, is,
like the products of animal instinct, the intelligent
effect of (as far as we are concerned) an unknown
cause. --Sir H. Hamilton.
Syn: Natural; voluntary; spontaneous; original; innate;
inherent; automatic.
[1913 Webster]
