Criticalthinking was examined using the Health Sciences Reasoning Test (HSRT) for students at the beginning and end ofthe first year of didactic instruction. This pilot study serves as a foundation for additional critical thinking studies.These study results may serve to help nurse anesthesia educators improve the learning process. Nurse anesthesiaeducators are in an important position to improve teaching and learning through classroom activities that fostercritical thinking.
