摘要:We address the validity of the FCI,that is,whether respondents who answer FCI questions correctly have an actual understanding of the concepts of physics tested in the questions.We used sub-questions that test students on concepts believed to be required to answer the actual FCI questions.Our sample size comprises about five hundred respondents;we derive false positive ratios for pre-learners and post-learners,and evaluate the significant difference between them.Our analysis shows a significant difference at the 95 % confidence level for Q.6,Q.7,and Q.16,implying that it is possible for post-learners to answer three questions without understanding the concepts of physics tested in the questions;therefore,Q.6,Q.7 and Q.16 are invalid.
