The AUGUST Two-Sample Test: Powerful, Interpretable, and Fast
Benjamin Brown, Kai Zhang
Two-sample testing is a fundamental problem in statistics, and many famous two-sample tests are designed to be fully non-parametric. These existing methods perform well with locati…
Development and Validation of a conceptual survey instrument to evaluate introductory physics students' understanding of thermodynamics
Benjamin Brown, Chandralekha Singh
We discuss the development and validation of a conceptual multiple-choice survey instrument called the Survey of Thermodynamic Processes and First and Second Laws (STPFaSL) suitabl…
Improving performance in quantum mechanics with explicit incentives to correct mistakes
Benjamin R. Brown, Andrew Mason, Chandralekha Singh
An earlier investigation found that the performance of advanced students in a quantum mechanics course did not automatically improve from midterm to final exam on identical problem…
Development and Evaluation of a Quantum Interactive Learning Tutorial on Larmor Precession Of Spin
enjamin R. Brown, Chandralekha Singh
We conducted research on student difficulties and developed and evaluated a quantum interactive learning tutorial (QuILT) on Larmor precession of spin to help students learn about…
The effect of giving explicit incentives to correct mistakes on subsequent problem solving in quantum mechanics
Benjamin Brown, Andrew Mason, Chandralekha Singh
One attribute of experts is that they are likely to learn from their own mistakes. Experts are unlikely to make the same mistakes when asked to solve a problem a second time, espec…
