Situationism therefore challenges the positions of trait theorists, such as [Hans Eysenck](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Eysenck "Hans Eysenck") or [Raymond B. Cattell](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_B._Cattell "Raymond B. Cattell").[[2]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situationism_(psychology)#cite_note-2) This is an ongoing debate that has truth to both sides, psychologists are able to prove each of the view points through human experimentation. > - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situationism_(psychology) > traitblazers meet [[concepts.trailblazers]] >The **Situationist International** (**SI**) was an [international](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proletarian_internationalism "Proletarian internationalism") organization of social revolutionaries made up of [avant-garde](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avant-garde "Avant-garde") artists, intellectuals, and [political theorists](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_philosophy "Political philosophy").
