This is an appreciative-reflective study that aims to explore the understanding of personality psychology through literary learning. In this context, the literature used is Maleficent, (film). The method used is qualitative psychology. Respondents: 44 students who programmed literary theory. Data analysis techniques used the stages of identification, classification, reduction, and exposure of data in an interpretive-heuristic manner. The results showed that more students understood the Maleficent films from a psychological perspective. Students are more likely to focus their research on the main character Maleficent, which brings up many psychological elements through this character's behaviour and mental processes. However, in this context, they understand that psychology is still in the stage of general psychology. Therefore, the teacher gives a deepening of the material related to personality psychology contained in Maleficent. © 2020, Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
