Who is considered the founder of Structuralism?

  1. B.F. Skinner

  2. Carl Jung

  3. Wilhelm Wundt

  4. Sigmund Freud

The correct answer is: Wilhelm Wundt

Wilhelm Wundt is considered the founder of Structuralism because he established the first psychological laboratory in 1879 and developed the theory of structuralism, which focused on the structure of the human mind and the elements of consciousness. While B.F. Skinner and Sigmund Freud are important figures in psychology, they are not considered the founders of Structuralism. Carl Jung is known for his work in analytical psychology, which differed from Wundt's focus on structuralism. Therefore, Jung is also not the founder of Structuralism.
