Abstract: Starting from the premise that sports activities can positively impact young people's critical thinking development, our article aims to analyze the three-dimensional relationship between the skills of young people - their desire to carry out sports activities - the development of critical thinking. Based on a questionnaire distributed to young people who carry out sports activities, we observed that these activities contribute to developing young people's critical thinking. We used SEM-PLS and concluded that critical openness is an essential motivational factor both for the performance of sports activities and for developing critical thinking.
