"Preference formation" as a book category covers how people, groups, and institutions develop likes, dislikes, priorities, and choices over time. It spans psychological and developmental studies of how early experiences, cognition, emotion, and identity shape tastes; behavioral economics and decision theory explaining biases, heuristics, and revealed versus constructed preferences; sociological and cultural accounts of how norms, social networks, marketing, and media influence desires; and neuroscientific, computational, and modeling work on the mechanisms and dynamics of preference change. Books in this category include empirical research, theoretical frameworks, and practical guides for shaping or measuring preferences—relevant to marketing, public policy, political behavior, UX/recommender systems, and personal development. The unifying theme is understanding not just what people prefer, but how those preferences arise, evolve, and can be influenced or measured.
