Abstract
Although new historical discoveries can be made, as of this writing, the answer is 1938 in a book entitled, "Interpretations and Misinterpretations of Modern Physics" by Philipp Frank. There are many misconceptions and an abundance of misinformation on Google search of when the term "Systems Thinking" (or "System Thinking") was first used. This publication identifies the first documented use of the term. Note that the first use of the term is not the same as the first discussion of systems, systems, sciences, thinking about systems, complexity, etc. In this article, we are simply looking for the first documented use of the specific term.
虽然新的历史发现可以被发现，但在撰写本文时，答案是1938年菲利普·弗兰克(Philipp Frank)写的一本名为《现代物理学的解释和误解》(interpretation and misinterpretation of Modern Physics)的书。关于“系统思维”(或“系统思维”)一词何时被首次使用，谷歌搜索中存在许多误解和大量错误信息。本出版物确定了该术语的第一个文档使用。请注意，第一次使用这个术语与第一次讨论系统、系统、科学、对系统的思考、复杂性等不同。在本文中，我们只是寻找特定术语的第一个文档用法。
