摘要：The identification of studentsrsquo; mental models is crucial in understanding their knowledge of scientific concepts. This research aimed to develop a Mental Models Representation Instrument on Newton#39;s Laws (MeMoRI-NL). The ADDIE (Analyzing, Designing, Developing, Implementing and Evaluating) model was used as a research method. The sample consisted of 30 students of 15-16 years-old at one of senior high school in Tatar Pasundan. The data was examined using Rasch analysis on validity, reliability, level of difficulty, and distributions of studentsrsquo; mental models. Studentsrsquo; mental models were classified as Scientific (SC), Synthetic (SY), Synthetic almost Misconception (SYM), and Initial (IN) model. Based on the evaluating stage, studentsrsquo; mental models are mostly in the SYM and IN model. Consequently, it can be concluded that the Mental Models Representation Instrument on Newton#39;s Laws (MeMoRI-NL) can be developed using the ADDIE model and most of the students#39; mental model has not been following scientific knowledge. Based on this research, teachers or educators should enhance students#39; mental models, especially for female students.
