The aim of this study is to determine the effect of logical thinking on students' Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). The Infusion Learning Model of Swartz, Fischer, and Parks (1999) was used in this study. To investigate the impact of logical thinking on HOTS, a model was developed. In the first place, the interrelationship between variables was validated so that the next test could be carried out. The random cluster sampling technique was used to perform this quantitative survey study. This study had 388 participants out of a total population of 18,137. Path analysis and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) were used to examine the data. This study discovered that the two variables have a strong interrelationship. As a result, logical thinking variables have a significant effect on HOTS. In conclusion, the research model fits the predicted outcomes. Hopefully, further research on critical thought will be conducted in the future.
