  Mentat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mentats are able to sift large volumes of data and devise concise analyses in a process that goes far beyond logical deduction: A mentat cultivates the naïve mind — the mind without preconception or prejudice, which can extract the essential patterns or logic of data and deliver, with varying degrees of certainty, useful conclusions.
