Abstract

Students' conceptual understanding of magnetism has been extensively studied, but limited research focuses on gender-based differences. This study aims to analyze Indonesian senior high school students’ conceptual understanding of magnetism and evaluate the influence of gender. A quantitative approach was applied using a conceptual test adapted from the Magnetism Conceptual Survey (MCS), consisting of ten multiple-choice items covering key concepts. Data from 120 students (57 males and 63 females) were analyzed. The average score was 66.84, which falls into the “Good” category based on predefined scoring intervals. Statistical analysis using the Mann-Whitney test revealed no significant gender difference (p = 0.836), and the effect size was negligible (Cohen’s d ≈ 0.078), indicating the difference was not practically significant. However, some concepts were particularly challenging, such as distinguishing between electric charge and magnetic poles (37.5% correct) and understanding magnetic force (45.8% correct). These findings suggest that while students generally demonstrate a good level of understanding, conceptual difficulties persist regardless of gender. Variations in learning outcomes appear to be influenced more by cognitive and contextual factors, such as item characteristics, spatial visualization skills, and mastery of basic physics concepts, rather than gender itself. Instructional emphasis should therefore prioritize conceptual clarity in these difficult areas over gender-specific strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to develop, validate, and analyze test items for assessing the understanding of mechanical wave concepts among high school students. The test development process followed the Mardapi instrument development model, which includes: (1) constructing test specifications, (2) writing test items, (3) reviewing test items, (4) piloting the test, and (5) analyzing the items. The developed instrument consists of 12 multiple-choice items, covering three aspects of conceptual understanding: translation, interpretation, and interpolation. Content validity was assessed by three validators, and the results were analyzed using the Aiken V method. The instrument was then administered to 257 high school students in South Sulawesi Province. The results were analyzed using Item Response Theory (IRT) with the Rasch model through the Quest program. Item analysis included item fit estimation, reliability, and item difficulty. The content validity test results indicate that the instrument is valid. All items fit the Rasch model, with a reliability coefficient of 0.95, categorized as high reliability. Item difficulty analysis revealed that 8.3% of items were categorized as easy, 8.3% as difficult, and 83.3% as moderate. Overall, the results indicate that the test instrument is of good quality and can be used to assess high school students’ understanding of mechanical wave concepts.
