Abstract
The study is intended to examine the reciprocal contribution of involvement in debate to critical thinking skills, confidence, and speaking ability. This is path analysis in nature. Fifty-one university students actively taking part in English debate participated in the study. Students’ critical thinking skills and self�confidence were elicited through Likert scale questionnaires, while students’ speaking ability was elicited through Students Oral Language Observation Matrix (SOLOM). The data were analyzed using path analysis through AMOS. The findings show a significant direct contribution of involvement in debate to students’ critical thinking skills, self-confidence, and speaking ability (P > 0.5). The study also reveals a significant contribution of involvement in debate to speaking ability through critical thinking skill (Sobel test = 2.753 > 1.96), and contribution of involvement in debate to speaking ability through self-confidence was also found to be significant. The study implies that encouraging students to involve in debate is of paramount significance to foster students’ critical thinking skills, self-confidence, and language oral ability.
