In China, compared with the growing enthusiasm in debate among Chinese students, research in this field is relatively weak. Therefore, in order to gain an in-depth understanding of how forensic participation influence students’ critical thinking, especially their intellectual disposition, I conducted this multiple case study based on Paul-Elder Model of Critical Thinking. My research question is “How does Chinese college students’ critical thinking disposition change as a result of participating in debate?” After six month’s observation on the debate team and three face-to-face interviews with each respondent, I found that forensic participation helps developing student’s intellectual traits, which are indispensable to critical thinking skills. Moreover, forensic participation helps the students to get rid of ego-centric and socio-centric thinking, which paves the way for them to become real critical thinkers. Keywords—Debate; Intellectual traits; Paul-Elder Model of Critical Thinking; Multiple case study
