Analytic approach of response pattern of diagnostic test items in evaluating students' conceptual understanding of characteristics of particle of matter

This research aimed to evaluate the students' conceptual understanding and to diagnose the students' preconceptions in elaborating the particle characteristics of matter by development of diagnostic instrument as well as Rasch model response pattern analysis approach. Data were acquired by...
