Assessing critical thinking skills and disposition is crucial in nursing education and research. The California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CCTDI) uses the Delphi Report's consensus definition of critical thinking as the theoretical basis to measure critical thinking disposition. Item analysis and factor analysis techniques were used to create seven disposition scales, which grouped the Delphi dispositional descriptions into larger, more unified constructs: open-mindedness, analyticity, cognitive maturity, truth-seeking, systematicity, inquisitiveness, and self-confidence. Cronbach's alpha for the overall instrument, the disposition toward critical thinking, is .92. The 75-item instrument was administered to an additional sample of college students (N = 1019). The alpha levels in the second sample remained relatively stable, ranging from .60 to .78 on the subscales and .90 overall. The instrument has subsequently been used to assess critical thinking disposition in high school through the graduate level but is targeted primarily for the college undergraduates. Administration time is 20 minutes. Correlation with its companion instrument, the California Critical Thinking Skills Test, also based on the Delphi critical thinking construct, was measured at .66 and .67 in two pilot sample groups.
评估批判性思维技能和倾向在护理教育与研究中至关重要。加利福尼亚批判性思维倾向问卷（CCTDI）采用德尔菲报告中对批判性思维的共识定义作为理论基础来测量批判性思维倾向。运用项目分析和因素分析技术创建了七个倾向量表，这些量表将德尔菲倾向描述归纳为更大、更统一的结构：开放性思维、分析性、认知成熟度、求真性、系统性、好奇心和自信心。整个问卷（即批判性思维倾向）的克朗巴哈系数为0.92。该包含75个条目的问卷施测于另外一组大学生样本（N = 1019）。第二个样本中的各分量表的系数水平相对稳定，分量表系数范围为0.60至0.78，总体系数为0.90。该问卷随后被用于评估从高中到研究生阶段的批判性思维倾向，但主要针对的是大学本科生。施测时间为20分钟。在两个试点样本组中，该问卷与其配套工具加利福尼亚批判性思维技能测试（同样基于德尔菲批判性思维结构）的相关性分别为0.66和0.67。
