The Systems Framework for Personality was designed as a new way to think about personality psychology -- including how the discipline is represented in the classroom.
Shortly after the first article on the framework appeared in 1994, an exchange of articles appeared on teaching the psychology course in the newsletter of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology (the newsletter is named Dialogue).
These articles included a discussion of the Systems Framework (in a slightly earlier form). The articles are very brief -- a page or less each -- and are appended here.
