Recent study attempts to debunk belief in a "sixth sense."

According to a recent news article a study by the Melbourne School of Psychological Sciences shows that extrasensory perception does not exist.

Forty eight people were presented with pairs images of a woman. In some cases the second picture would feature a slight change, such as hairstyle of the addition of glasses." 

A poll that went with the article shows that most people believe that some people do have a "sixth sense," even if they'd prefer to call it gut instinct.
