For functionalists, this is achieved through successful. Even in demographic studies populations are regarded in terms of states of collective consciousness. The collective consciousness of society is the shared set of values or beliefs that people have. Sociology views social phenomena through the frame of reference of collective psychology.
Study of the latter type of phenomena (the domain of sociology) is necessary because it is the characteristic trait of collective representations to manifest themselves in material form. JOHN 16.7 But I am telling you the truth. By leaving the physical form and sending the Holy Spirit, he made it easier for us to realize this. He brought God into our hearts, minds and bodies. The field of sociology is established by distinguishing between thoughts and sentiments, on the one hand, and their concrete, exterior, manifestations (techniques), on the other between the psychological and the physical aspects of institutions. The Christ resurrection removed the necessity of a third-party order to have contact with God. Thus two parts of collective psychology emerge: the general study of the characteristics and modes of functioning of group thought, differing in content according to the group and the particular collective psychologies of subgroups, the nation, family, class, etc. The collective thought is not a metaphysical entity to be sought in a metaphysical world but exists only in individual consciousness and represents the interacting states of consciousness of a number of individuals comprising the group. Psychology will therefore be either the psychology of the individual as a member of the species or collective psychology. Actually, however, in our consciousness there exist both matter imagined or perceived and social forms or patterns. Even when man is artificially separated from society, he retains its imprint, particularly with respect to his intellectual processes. A serious facult in classical, in associationist, and in physiological psychologies is that they have been limited to the study of the idolated man.
