Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the students^ creative thinking abilities in solving mathematical problems based on the enneagram personality types. This research was a qualitative descriptive study conducted at 14 high school students. The data were collected through the classification of personality types, test questions, interviews, and questionnaires. The research subjects chosen were students with the highest test scores on each personality type. Data analysis was performed with the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the creative thinking abilities of all students with the enneagram personality type have good creative thinking abilities in aspects of fluency and elaboration, but lacking in flexibility and originality. The implication of the results and future research directions are also presented.
