However, research on the efficacy of the CCTDI in predicting good thinking about students’ own deeply held beliefs is scant. In this paper we report on our study that was designed to gauge the usefulness of the CCTDI in this context, and take some first steps towards designing a better method for measuring strong sense critical thinking.application/pdfenThis is an author’s accepted version of an article published in the journal: Inquiry: Critical Thinking Across the Disciplines. © 2015 Philosophy Documentation Center.Critical thinkingCritical thinking dispositionsCritical thinking testsCCTDIDeeply held beliefsStrong sense critical thinkingJournal Article10.5840/inquiryct20153016
