When being reflexive it is often instated by something that triggered the idea
or something that triggered the idea or thought. Qualley states on page 14 in
the article Turns of Thought "reflexivity complicates our understandings and
efforts to know by making us self-conscious, cognizant of our role in production
of knowledge.
   Reflective is thoughts we think in our own minds, and is based off of the
information and knowledge that we are already conscious of.
