Abstract
We explore student performance on True-False assessments with statements in the conditional form “If P then Q” in order to better understand how students process conditional logic and to see whether logical misconceptions impede students’ ability to demonstrate mathematical knowledge. We administered an online assessment to a population of Calculus II students. We find that students make logical errors on True-False items of a certain logical form, and that these errors are unrelated to their calculus knowledge.
