Abstract

This study aims to describe the mathematical problem-solving abilities of students in solving linear programming problems in terms of the Thinking and Feeling personality types. This research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type. The research subjects consisted of four students from the 4A Mathematics Education class at IAIN Kerinci, selected purposively based on MBTI questionnaire results two students of the Thinking type and two of the Feeling type. The instruments used include the MBTI questionnaire to identify personality types, linear programming problem-solving tests, and interview guidelines to explore the students' thinking processes. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that Thinking- and Feeling-type students display different problem-solving patterns. Thinking-type students tend to be systematic in planning and executing strategies but are still lacking in the review stage. Meanwhile, Feeling-type students understand the problems well but are less accurate in calculations and final conclusions. These differences indicate that personality types influence how students solve mathematical problems, particularly in reflective thinking and problem-solving strategies.
