Oct 23, 2014 at 6:01 comment added Mohammad Golshani Maybe the paper A Combinatorial Principle Equivalent to the Existence of Non-free Whitehead Groups by Eklof-Shelah be relevant.
Oct 22, 2014 at 7:01 comment added Thomas Benjamin Is there a combinatorial principle $\mathrm X$ such that ZFC+$\mathrm X$+PSA$\vdash$"Every Whitehead group is free" and ZFC+$\mathrm X$+$\lnot$PSA$\vdash$"there exist nonfree Whitehead groups" since Mekler and Shelah show in their paper "Diamond and $\lambda$-systems that it is consistent with $2^{\aleph_0}$=$2^{\aleph_1}$ that every Whitehead group is free? This might address Prof. Hamkins' concern that my question does not make sense.
