Detailed explanation-1: -Structuralism has often been criticized for being ahistorical and for favouring deterministic structural forces over the ability of people to act.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The biggest problem structuralism has is that the mind just does not appear to work in the way it describes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Structuralism developed the idea that the structure of mind (i.e., cognitive structure) is the result of evolutionary and genetically determined biological forces and that the products of human effort reflect the biological basis of structure.
