Abstract

- Gettier cases have been central to recent philosophical theories of knowledge.
- Philosophers use these cases to distinguish justified true belief from knowledge.
- Some research suggests lay people have different intuitions about Gettier cases.
- Our study shows lay people see Gettier cases as instances of justified true belief.
- Like philosophers, lay people do not equate justified true belief and knowledge.
