unanalytical
Lacking systematic thinking
Unanalytical describes a person or approach that doesn't examine things methodically or break them down into components.
An unanalytical thinker accepts information at face value rather than probing its logic or evidence: His unanalytical approach to the data led him to miss obvious patterns.
The word often carries mild criticism, suggesting someone lacks rigor or intellectual curiosity.
