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. |
