How detailed is an introduction to a MA thesis in psychology supposed to be?

My MA thesis is about attitudes. I have a general outline for my thesis and I have quite a lot written already, however I am having doubts about how detailed, or actually how basic i am supposed to be in my presentation of the topic. Should I assume that the reader has some knowledge on the topic? Or should it be more like a book chapter on the topic, providing a thorough explanation of everything?
