Summary

In this part a basis for a general theory of personality psychology has been created that will be amplified in due course.

Personality psychology is the study of how the different parts of the mind work together, and how they can work together in a unified way. Sadly, it is a fragmented discipline and various suggestions have been made concerning how to integrate it. This work provides a means, through configuration approaches and third-order cybernetic modelling, by which integration can develop and a more understandable whole can develop.
