Direct linkHeckler, Andrew F.; Scaife, Thomas M. – Cognitive Science, 2015
We report on five experiments investigating response choices and response times to simple science questions that evoke student "misconceptions," and we construct a simple model to explain the patterns of response choices. Physics students were asked to compare a physical quantity represented by the slope, such as speed, on simple physics…
