Zarkadis, Nikolaos; Stamovlasis, Dimitrios; Papageorgiou, George – European Journal of Physics Education, 2021
The present study investigates the effect of three neo-Piagetian constructs, namely Formal Reasoning (FR), Field Dependence/Independence (FDI) and Divergence (DIV), as well as the effect of age and gender, on students' portrayed representations of the atomic structure, considering their degree of coherence. For this purpose students'…
