Abstract	Purpose: This paper undertakes a comparative review of the concept of 'Caring Thinking' from the perspectives of specific figures (with different cultural voices) in the field of Educational Psychology. Specifically, it focuses on the area of Thinking and Cognition--Matthew Lipman as well as Mohd Daud Hamzah and Abdul Kadir Arifin. Methodology: The review scrutinised the concept of caring thinking in Matthew Lipman's (2003) Thinking Model as well as Mohd Daud Hamzah and Abdul Kadir Arifin's (2001) Islamic Cognitive Processes Model (ICPM). Employing a cross-cultural comparative review, the analysis concentrated on the commonalities shared and the differences between the two schools of thought. The aspects of comparison include cognition principles, caring thinking inventory, thinking direction, human characterisation and role of beings. Findings: This review suggests that the scholars propagate and share comparable nuances on the underlying characteristics of human cognition in order to facilitate the formation of the caring thinking concept. However, the interplay of human inner drive which incorporates values is deliberated in different cultural voices when Lipman (2003) vastly discusses caring thinking model based on the western context. On the other hand, Mohd Daud Hamzah and Abdul Kadir Arifin's (2001) cognition model attempts to highlight human cognitive process from the Islamic perspective. Significance: These findings substantiate the needs to understand the derivation of human cognition process that later explains their abilities to sense bad and good values in the scale of moral virtue development. Fundamentally, this discussion considers the perspectives of both scholars regarding the formation of individuals' thoughts and behaviours which reflect the attributes of 'caring thinking.' Hence, this implies that greater opportunities and efforts should be undertaken to explore how caring thinking can be made useful to the field of education. (As Provided).
