I can say that in education research, inquiry-based learning is expected to help the development of critical thinking. That's one reason why it is promoted. We shouldn't neglect though that critical thinking is a wide and complex concept.
Magnussen, L., Ishida, D., & Itano, J. (2000). The impact of the use of inquiry-based learning as a teaching methodology on the development of critical thinking. Journal of Nursing Education, 39(8), 360-364.
Inquiry-based learning is superb in transforming wonder into knowledge. A good combination will be when there is a "smart" inquest that builds up in-depth knowledge.This process has to be accompanied by what induces critical thinking but there is a need for the teacher to be innovative enough to effect deliberate ways to change the "passive" attitude of students into active brave one in which students feel free to express their ideas.
I think that this attached paper is helpful in your research:
