Children described as thrill seekers are more likely to show taste preferences for intense sour flavors (Liem, Westerbeek, Wolterink, Kok, & de Graaf, 2004), which suggests that basic aspects of personality might affect perception. Furthermore, individuals who hold positive attitudes toward reduced-fat foods are more likely to rate foods labeled as reduced fat as tasting better than people who have less positive attitudes about these products (Aaron, Mela, & Evans, 1994).<ref name=":0" />

== Extra Sensory Perception ==

Extra sensory perception is the ability to perceive objects or events in ways that cannot be explained by known sensory capacities. The study of extra sensory perception phenomena is termed as '''Parapsychology'''. Events that seem to lie outside the region of accepted scientific laws are called psi-phenomena.<ref name=":2">https://www.nios.ac.in/media/documents/secpsycour/English/Chapter-5.pdf</ref>

 

An example of extrasensory perception is when a person intuitively ‘feels’ that his brother who is in another city is not well. Another example could be when you just ‘know’ that an earthquake is going to happen in your city.<ref name=":2" />

 

'''Clairvoyance''' is the ability to perceive events or gain information in ways that appear unaffected by distance or normal barriers. '''Telepathy''' refers to the perception of another person’s thoughts or the ability to read someone else’s mind. '''Pre-cognition''' is termed as the ability to predict or perceive  future events accurately. '''Psycho-kinesis''' refers to the ability to exert influence over inanimate objects by will-power (mind over matter). Very rarely we find persons are able to move objects only through concentration but without touching them. A few psychologists strongly believe in extrasensory perception but a majority does not subscribe to it.<ref name=":2" />
