TOLT: Test Of Logical Thinking.
to assess logical thinking for medicine college students at Al Baath University. The sample was 188 participants from different years (N = 188). We analyzed the data using Python (a programming language).
Results
This study found that college courses and materials do not contribute to developing logical thinking abilities for Medical college's students at Al Baath University over the program years, where the sixth and last year scored the lowest Mean among all years. Most of the participants had better logical thinking at secondary school than now at college. Males scored higher Mean than females at TOLT.
