Résumé

The nature of interactionism as manifested in psychology and education is examined. The author discusses the historical , conceptual, and methodological bases of interactionism, reviews pertinent research , and concludes that interactionism (person-by-situation study in personality psychology and A TI in educational study) is little more than the proclamation of a truism . Moreover, he argues, the focus on interactionism has contributed more confusion than clarity since the need for a better understanding of the person factor in the classical B = f (P ,S) has been obscured.
