The Critical Thinking Strategies quiz exercises your critical thinking skills. It is not a test of content knowledge. Instead, it targets the skills people need for rational problem-solving and decision-making. The questions provide information and context. You apply your critical thinking skills to reason to the best choice from among those offered. Your personal results will be reported to you on screen as an overall score and as scores on multiple skill dimensions:
- OVERALL Reasoning Skills
- Reasoning in Ambiguous and Uncertain Contexts
- Reasoning in Logically Precise Contexts
- Analytical and Interpretive Reasoning
- Evaluative and Explanatory Reasoning
- Reasoning in Numerical and Quantitative Contexts
