Answer:

b. applying a set of skills to understand and evaluate information.

Explanation:

Critical thinking refers to the analysis of facts in order to form a judgement. To perform this analysis, you need to employ a particular set of skills. For the most part, this analysis is meant to be rational, unbiased and well-reasoned. Moreover, it requires an open mind, perspective, and self-discipline. The earliest discussions that we know of about this topic come from the discussions of Socrates recorded by Plato.
