Functionalism vs Structuralism is two sets of beliefs that go
hand and hand. Structuralism is the breaking down of the
mental process and Functionalism is the explanation of the
mental process as it is happening. The Structuralism part
of my brain. I think a lot. For example I think of school. School leads me to think about other things like math or English. That's the breaking down part aka Structuralism. Functionalism would be why am I reminded of math or English first and in this case it would be because those are two subjects that I'm struggling in.
