Description
The primary objective of this study was to investigate the post-graduate students' critical
thinking skill. Then, critical thinking disposition of post-graduate students was explored. In
addition, to examine their brain dominance was of next interest. Moreover, the strong
predictors of critical thinking skill were investigated. Design of this study was cross sectional
in nature. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were used in this study. This study was
conducted at Yangon Institute of Education and Sagaing Institute of Education, Myanmar. The
total of 326 post-graduate students from YIOE and SIOE participated in this study. Critical
Thinking Skill Test, Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CTDI) and Brain Dominance
Test (BDT) were used as the research instruments. Alpha reliability for CTST, CTDI and BDT
revealed at 0.64, 0.88 and 0.86 respectively.
In this study, 72.6 % of post-graduate students were found to be disposed positive on
overall scale of CTDI. On the other hand, only 27.4 % of post-graduate students were
ambivalently disposed towards critical thinking. Majority of students have high disposition
towards critical thinking. Gender related difference revealed on truth-seeking sub-scale.
Looking across the seven sub-scales, percentages of positive endorsement on critical thinking
self confidence, open-mindedness, and cognitive maturity sub-scales were less than other four
sub-scales.
Concerning the brain dominance, the majority of post-graduate students who disposed
positively towards critical thinking were left brain thinkers. Concerning the critical thinking,
25.8% were found to be advanced skilled thinkers, 46.9% were skilled thinkers, and the rest
27.3% can be classified as unskilled thinkers. Moreover, differences in level of education were
found on overall test as well as interpretation sub-scale. According to the backward multiple
regression analysis result, strong predictors of critical thinking skill were analyticity, cognitive
maturity, inquisitiveness and level of education. Based on the empirical results, a model of
critical thinking skill was developed.
