Abstract

This study investigates the correlation between the English major`s critical thinking disposition (CTD) and their English writing performance. Based on the questionnaire of critical thinking disposition which is revised by Wen Qiufang in 2009

and the abilities of truth-seeking and open-mindedness are relatively weak. (ii) There is correlation between students` CTD and their English writing

although the correlation is feeble positively related. (iii) Among the eight dimensions

cognitive-maturity
