Planinic, Maja; Boone, William J.; Krsnik, Rudolf; Beilfuss, Meredith L. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2006
Croatian 1st-year and 3rd-year high-school students (N = 170) completed a conceptual physics test. Students were evaluated with regard to two physics topics: Newtonian dynamics and simple DC circuits. Students answered test items and also indicated their confidence in each answer. Rasch analysis facilitated the calculation of three linear…
