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.
Although people are able to detect changes in their surroundings the article states that "The research found that this ability was not down to any supernatural, extra senses, but was rather the result of functions of normal senses like sight. 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.
