Implication

Research development identifies misconceptions in heat and thermodynamics concepts among students, suggesting the need for targeted educational tools.

Key Points

Significant misconceptions in heat and thermodynamics were found, particularly concerning temperature change, reaching 44.11%.
Using a five-tier test instrument, 195 students were assessed, revealing gender differences in understanding of key concepts.
Instrument reliability was found to be strong for items (0.81) but weak for person reliability (0.55), indicating variability in student comprehension.
The Aiken V formula validated the test items, with 18 deemed valid, supporting the continued use of this assessment method in education.
