Description
Within the present study, we empirically examine an example frequently cited in the literature on physics teaching to illustrate that one’s naive conceptions can influence the observation of a natural phenomenon. Conducted through an online survey, we challenged 158 participants to predict, reason, and observe the enlightenment of a light bulb filament. Our interim results reveal a contradiction to the description within literature on physics teaching since our participants rarely observed outcomes consistent with their own predictions (κ=.111) and reasonings (κ=.184). Details on the present study’s design as well as further interim results are outlined in this proposal.
