What's the basic definition of folk psychology?
Answer The understanding of how everyday people perceive behavior and mental states.
Folk psychology, also known as commonsense psychology, takes a close look at how ordinary people, or those without an extensive science background, go about attributing mental states. The information gathered from everyday humans is then compared to scientific standpoints.
