Regulative functions of common sense seem to be an interesting phenomena worth investigating, but very few studies have addressed the matter. In this article, we discussed the normative influence of common sense from the perspectives of both common sense as knowledge, and common sense as a norm. A review of the literature was conducted from these perspectives, reflecting upon how they apply to real life. In particular, we discussed the latter perspective with respect to its significance, suggesting research approaches, and raising future directives for research. After reviewing the concepts involved in the study of normative influence of common sense, we discussed the potential contribution of such studies toward our social lives.
