There are distinct mental acts and states that form parts of the critical thinking process. These components help to identify abilities, skills, dispositions, attitudes, habits, and things that contribute to critical thinking. Setting the goals helps to design strategies for learners and improve feedback to learners and a basis for experimental research. The types of mental acts and events are: observing. When one notes the results of an experiment or systematic observation: feeling. One feels puzzled or uncertain about something. One feels satisfaction once one has worked out an answer: wondering. One formulates a question to be addressed: imagining. One thinks of possible answers: inferring. One works out what would be the case if possible answer were assumed. One draws a conclusion once sufficient relevant evidence is gathered.
