Abstract: Philosophy of mind is an important turn after linguistic(semantic)and pragmatic turns in the mid or end of 20th century in western philosophy, which provided a new meta-theory and methodology for psychology. It has 1)provided a psychology new world view of ′mind-language-world′; 2)researched into human mind from the horizon of philosophy, which promoted philosophy and psychology to combine and feed each other; 3)prompted ′what is human being′ to be reviewed and explained again; 4)triggered the question to the body-mind dualism as the cornerstone of the past psychology especially the past mainstream psychology; 5)given rise to some new approaches such as the second cognitive science and actionist cognitive psychology and Situated Cognition, etc. It is of great enlightenment to psychology: 1)It is limitations to study human mind by the research in artificial intelligence and animal. 2)the role of body should be paid attention to. 3)Human intentionality and metaphor analysis should be paid great attention to. 4)Human existence, especially the meaning of life should be concerned about.
