Then, critical thinking disposition of post-graduate students was explored.\nIn addition, to examine their brain dominance was of next interest. Moreover, the strong\npredictors of critical thinking skill were investigated. Design of this study was cross\nsectional in nature. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were used in this study.\nThis study was conducted at Yangon Institute of Education (YIOE) and Sagaing Institute\nof Education (SIOE), Myanmar. The total of 326 post-graduate students from YIOE and\nSIOE participated in this study. Critical Thinking Skill Test, Critical Thinking Disposition\nInventory (CTDI) and Brain Dominance Test (BDT) were used as the research instruments.\nCritical Thinking Skills Test consists of 21 items and five sub-scales such as evaluation,\nexplanation, analysis, inference and interpretation. The CTDI is composed of 72 items. It\nconsists of seven sub-scales such as Inquisitiveness, Open-mindedness, Systematicity,\nAnalyticity, Truth-seeking, Critical Thinking Self-confidence, and Cognitive Maturity.\nEach sub-scale was coded by using a six-point likert type scale, with 1= strongly disagree\nto 6= strongly agree. The BDT is composed of 50 items. Alpha reliability for CTST, CTDI\nand BDT revealed at 0.64, 0.88 and 0.86 respectively. In this study, 72.6 % of post-graduate\nstudents were found to be disposed positive on overall scale of CTDI. On the other hand,\nonly 27.4 % of post-graduate students were ambivalently disposed towards critical thinking.\nMajority of students have high disposition towards critical thinking. Gender related\ndifference revealed on truth-seeking sub-scale. Looking across the seven sub-scales,\npercentages of positive endorsement on critical thinking self-confidence, open-mindedness,\nand cognitive maturity sub-scales were less than other four sub-scales. Concerning the brain\ndominance, 27.9% of post-graduate students were whole brain thinkers, whereas 65.6 %\nwere left-brain thinkers, and the rest 6.4% were right-brain thinkers. The results also\nshowed that the majority of post-graduate students who disposed positively towards critical\nthinking were left brain thinkers. Concerning the critical thinking, 25.8% were found to be\nadvanced skilled thinkers, 46.9% were skilled thinkers, and the rest 27.3% can be classified\nas unskilled thinkers. Regarding the five sub-scales, the mean score of analysis skill was\nlower than other skills. Across disciplinary difference on critical thinking skill was found\nto be on interpretation skill. Similar result was found between types of trainee. Moreover,\ndifferences in level of education were found on overall test as well as interpretation subscale. However, gender related difference was not found to be on overall test as well as five sub-scales of CTST. According to the backward multiple regression analysis result, brain\ndominance was the best predictor of critical thinking disposition. Moreover, strong\npredictors of critical thinking skill were analyticity, cognitive maturity, inquisitiveness and\nlevel of education. In line with the empirical results, a model of critical thinking skill was\ndeveloped."}]},"item_1583103120197":{"attribute_name":"Files","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_access","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2020-09-04"}],"displaytype":"preview","filename":"Critical Thinking Skills Among Post-Graduade Students.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"11 Kb"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_0","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"url":"https://meral.edu.mm/record/5178/files/Critical Thinking Skills Among Post-Graduade Students.pdf"},"version_id":"361787cb-6e56-4ed5-8d96-e8b8540e0493"}]},"item_1583103233624":{"attribute_name":"Thesis/dissertations","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_awarding_university":"Yangon Institute of Education"}]},"item_1583105942107":{"attribute_name":"Authors","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_authors":[{"subitem_authors_fullname":"Nu Nu Nyunt"}]}]},"item_1583108359239":{"attribute_name":"Upload type","attribute_value_mlt":[{"interim":"Publication"}]},"item_1583108428133":{"attribute_name":"Publication type","attribute_value_mlt":[{"interim":"Dissertation "}]},"item_1583159729339":{"attribute_name":"Publication date","attribute_value":"2012"},"item_title":"Critical Thinking Skills Among Post-Graduate Students Across Curriculum in Myanmar Institutes of Education","item_type_id":"21","owner":"57","path":["1595850089647"],"publish_date":"2020-09-04","publish_status":"0","recid":"5178","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Critical Thinking Skills Among Post-Graduate Students Across Curriculum in Myanmar Institutes of Education"],"weko_creator_id":"57","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2022-03-24T23:15:18.150092+00:00"}
