the main problem with informal theories is they are based on?
a.bias
b.emotion
c.tradition rather than study
my answer is c
informal theory refers to an opinion or a speculation
a theory is not necessarily based on facts,in other words it is not required to be consistent with true descriptions of reality
that's why im leaning towards c for my answer
can someone please help me thanks

What school are you attending that has so many ambiguous and poorly worded questions?
I would say A, because we each develop our own theories of human nature based on our past experiences.
