Answer:

The term structuralism was first used by Edward B. Titchener but his teacher Wilhelm Wundt was the one who started to research into this ideas but he never used the term structuralism, he refer to his ideas as voluntarism.

Nevertheless Titchener is granted of being the father of structuralism.

Explanation:

He changed Wundt´s previous concepts and ideas to adapt them better to psychology.

The four foundational concepts were:

  1. Every system has a structure.
  2. The structure determines the position of each element of a whole.
  3. "structural laws" deal with coexistence rather than changes.
  4. Structures are the "real things" that lie beneath the surface or the appearance of meaning.
