REFLECTION QUESTION
• Answer 3 out of 6 questions in the next slide to
earn an optional Bronze credit for ILCP
The reflection should be sent to MO
MOVERLAND@CSBSJU.EDU
1) How do you see the Enneagram types affecting your personal relationships? (It
does not have to be a romantic relationship; you can describe how the type
affects a friendship or family bond.)
2) How do you feel your personal Enneagram type affects your viewing of
literature and pop culture?
3) Do you identify with the characters of your type, or do you have a distaste for
them? Is this related to similarities or differences they have to your personality?
4) How does the knowledge of the Enneagram field of study in general affect the
way you view literature and pop culture? Do you analyze fictional characters by
type? How does this change the way you see them?
5) What other works can you think of where a character's motivations make sense
once you figure out that character's type? Think back not only to recreational
readings and viewings, but also of materials you read and viewed for class.
6) Do you see any other personality traits in these characters that differ from those
identified?
