Critical Thinking Among College and Graduate Students
Abstract
John Dewey (1933) argued that reflective thinking, the careful col-lection and evaluation of evidence leading to a conclusion, should be a central aim of education. Recent national reports on the quality of post-secondary education in the United States have affirmed the centrality of teaching critical thinking skills to college students (National Institute of Education 1984; Association of American Colleges 1985; Garrison 1984). Yet the empirical evidence docu-menting progress toward this objective among undergraduate col-lege students is minimal, and among graduate students, is virtu-

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
