Description
Thomas offers a framework for comparing the folk psychologies of different cultures in terms of a group's conception of reality, ways of knowing, causes of events, and rituals. Folk psychology refers to the set of beliefs shared by members of a group regarding how other people's minds work and about the beliefs that result from such a view of mental life.
First Sentence
The best known early study of folk psychology appeared in a massive work, Volkerpsychologie, by the pioneer German psychologist Wilhelm Wundt (1832-1920) in the opening years of the 20th century.
