Psychology: Structuralism and Functionalism

Structuralism and Functionalism
(Student Name)
(His/her school or place of residence)






















Abstract

Both structuralism and functionalism are studies of human minds and behavioral consciousness. This means that every subject in a study is the human minds. They differ somehow since, structuralism focused on how to break down mental processes into tiny components of consciousness, while functionalism is focused on the purpose of the human minds and consciousness.
Keywords: Structuralism & Functionalism.















Structuralism is the first major school of thought in psychology that sought to identify the structures of the mind. It is the study of the fundamental elements of consciousness, which focused on breaking down mental processes into its most essential components which relied on a method called introspection.
A general approach in various academic disciplines that explores the inter-relationships between fundamental elements of some kind, upon which some higher mental, linguistic, social, cultural etc "structures" are built, meaning it's produced within a particular person, system, culture.
It is also a term, first popularized, by Claude Levi-Strauss, for an approach to the human sciences that attempts to analyze any human, cultural and social phenomena (e.g. culture, the mind, social structure, and so on) as a complex system of interrelated parts. It derives its premises from the theory of signification advanced by Saussure.
Structuralism was founded and initiated by Wilhelm Wundt, however his late student (Edward B. Titchner) was recognized more as the creator of Structuralism.
Some Key Definitions:
The concept of structure is comprised of three key ideas:
1. The idea of wholeness – is a defining mark of structures almost goes without saying, since all structuralists, mathematicians, linguists, psychologists, or whatever are recognizing as the fundamental contrast between structures and aggregates.
2. The idea of transformation – is formed of elements composing to cumulate one by one association of its elements.
3. The idea of self-regulation – is they are self regulating, self regulation entailing self-maintenance and closure.
Psychology: Structuralism and Functionalism

Functionalism was also a psychological school of thought which followed Structuralism and enthused away from focusing solely on the structure of the mind on a purpose of how to relate human conscious to behavior.
Is a form of reaction against structuralism that also used the method of introspection in determining the functions of the human minds.
A mental process on how to explain human minds on a more systematic and accurate manner. In addition to all, this school of thought has been created to observe events as opposed to unobservable events of someone's mind.
Conclusion: Structuralism and Functionalism
Structuralism and functionalism explore both the human mind; they are concerned with the conscious self, regardless of the verbal bashing of each side. However, they had some similarities, but they also had many differences.

More Than Words Can Say

More Than Words Can Say
I have had many love interests before,
But with you I have no knowledge of what's in store.
I had no idea that we would become this attached, but to my dismay.
You mean more to me than words can say.

I never ever will want to be with someone other than you.
Our love means more to me than words can speak of true.
With this, our love, I want it all to stand still, to stay.
You mean more to me than words can say.

All I want to do is to be near you all the time.
I think of you at the hour the clock always rings a chime.
I wan to see you all seconds of the day.
You mean more to me than words can say.

My heart melts when you say three little words.
They are, "I Love You!" I wonder if they are carried by birds.
But as always these words stay true up to this day,
You really do mean to me than words can say.

Feelings

Feelings
The feelings I feel inside
I can't explain
It's like I still love you
but it don't feel the same.

The memories we had
stays on my mind
How can I forget
I think about them all the time.

I wish we could go back
to how we was before
But it feels like the love we had before
just isn't there anymore.

So many thoughts run through my head
like what kind of future we have ahead
I hope all our problems go away
so we can live happier together forever, everyday

And if by chance our love do end
I hope to God that we can still be friends.

Broken Heart


Broken Heart
You broke up with me yesterday
and ripped my heart in two.
I never thought I'd hurt this much,
I couldn't stop crying over you.

I do not feel complete anymore,
A part of me is missing.
I loved the way you used to play with my hair
When we were on your bed, kissing.

You are the man of my dreams.
I wish we could be together.
Now I know that it's just not possible
But I want you to know that I'll love you Forever.
In more ways than one"

I Miss You

I Miss You
I miss your smile
I miss your laugh
I miss everything about you.
I see you everyday and all I can do is smile and wave.
When I really want you back I care so much for you.
I don't understand what did I do?

I thought we would be together for so long
You were so sweet and charming with your words,
But something happened I don't know what went wrong
I cried so hard just lying in my bed.

I say I am over you but I really know
I can't forget you and I never will.
I want you back and I love you so.
You don't even care and don't even know.

I saw you the other day
Talking to some girl I don't know
I stopped and stared I just couldn't look away.
It hurt so bad why did it have to turn out this way?

I guess we'll never be together again like I had wished.
I'll never forget you and the times we had.
The places we went and when we kissed.
I don't hate you and I am not pissed.

I just miss you so but I guess you'll never know.

I Love you

I Love You
I love you for who you are and
The way you accept me as what I am.
I love you for understanding the
Real meaning of life that is born out
Of our love.

I love you, for we have touched
Our life with love and care.
I love you
Not only for what you have made of yourself
But what you are making of me.

I love you,
Even though we're far apart.
I love you most of all because
You're my wonderful boyfriend,
And you mean so much to me.
