Even in falsehood truth is found. Sometimes while reading fiction or watching a TV show I consider the beliefs that an author has that would create such fantasies. Psychology is not something that requires any educational course to understand, it's a pattern like any other actually. Humans are designed to understand patterns, we couldn't communicate otherwise. Education teaches you vocabulary, but natural intuitiveness takes you much farther.
You don't always have to have a root belief to write about it in detail.
For instance, I greatly loathe large government, anarchy, religious organizations, and a few other things. Whenever I do get around to finally starting work on a fiction novel series I have been planning for some time (I might be
way too thorough to ever actually settle with a certain amount and just
go), those topics will be given a lot of time, sometimes in a seemingly positive light. If I ever get this story out of my head, one my feel I was glorifying certain things, perhaps that I believed it should be that way. But that wouldn't be the case (the true glorified theme of the story I will not put into writing, not yet
😉).
My intuitiveness allows me to create characters that have very specific beliefs, because I can imagine people with those beliefs. It doesn't matter I personally believe the exact opposite; intuition can lead to creativeness like that. I am a creative type, and sometimes I enjoy creating something based around an idea that couldn't be further from what I believe, all because I feel I can create a compelling story out of it.
I made a photo of me kneeling at a cross in my B&W photography course. It turned out really well, and a lot of people loved the photo. It was a character on film, made simply for the image. The photograph might actually have been even more interesting if held up alongside a host of other photos I have taken, some that
have shown what may be sitting below the surface. But I hate making photo-series.

For me, intuition works best if it is used to dissect an individual's character using both casual conversation and complex behavior; without both, the character is incomplete and thus I cannot say I have an accurate picture of the individual.
But in day to day life, my intuition only gets a great workout on the road - where individual character isn't so important, but generalizations can be life-saving.
