抄録
The number of organizations in private and public sectors holding debate training programs has increased due to the increased concern to improve those participants' critical thinking, communication and leadership skills in Japan in the last decade. Yet, the research on the actual effects of those training programs has been limited. If the effects have not been confirmed yet, why should the organizations keep investing their money into the training programs? What are the actual benefits for the participants of the training? Those are the main research questions for the authors as debate instructors and communication researchers. The previous research using questionnaires suggests that perceived benefits of such debate-training participants include skills in critical thinking, research, listening, presentation, and leadership. This research suggests that critical thinking skill is among the highest on the list. Based on such perceptive data, this research will further investigate the effects of the critical thinking skills of the participants using a test measure to attempt to answer the question about the effects of debate training.
