Portuguese term or phrase: depreensivo
As dimensões propostas não correspondem a estruturas rígidas e compartimentadas, mas, talvez, atendam à necessidade de transposição do pensamento que separa, classifica e fragmenta, rumo ao pensamento **depreensivo**, que tem sua base na compreensão como força motriz.

Does this word even exist? I can't find it anywhere.

Neither I nor my dictionaries know it, but maybe it is related to depreender. Maybe you should follow that path and see what happens.
