“…While this study focused on student understanding of probability distribution of measurement outcomes, future investigations will focus on other equally challenging topics in quantum mechanics and strategies to help students learn those concepts better. For example, students also have difficulties with topics such as possible outcomes of measurements, expectation values, and time development of quantum states and time dependence of expectation values [7]. Furthermore, in the study described here, we found that students had difficulties both with Dirac notation and position and momentum representations in the context of probability distributions for measurement outcomes.…”
