so glad this video is helpful for people! and apologies for the W instead of the V :-)

Thank you for this video, it helped. For some reason structuralism and functionalism are cloudy to me in terms of definitions and meanings, but after your explanation I understand them a lot better.

@SuperCarnby One focuses on structure and the other function.

This is very helpful. However, if a person asks you to describe the difference between structuralism and functionalism in one sentence, what will you say?

Thank you so much, this has been so helpful for a novice at the whole psychology subject, has helped me understand a great deal about how to discuss my paper on structuralism and functionalism :)

Just so you know, the "w" in both Wilhelm and Wundt are pronounced as "v" due to his German descent. In other words, it is Vilhelm Vundt, not William Wundt.
