Define pseudo-psychology and examine its relevance to the study of psychology?

Pseudo-psychology is used to describe folk wisdom and such (the psychology people apply to their own lives). People all have their own theories but those aren't scientifically proven.

Psychology tries to find actual real rules and laws when it comes to they human behavior and the mind, which are tested and experimentally proven.

Pseudo-psychology is interesting to the field of psychology because that's a way for psychologist to see how people look at life, what they use to understand society. Nothing people think is stupid or irrelevant, it all has a reason, it has to come from somewhere. That's why psychologists find it so interesting
