Description intermediate conception in learning Physics

Some previous research have showed that Physics concept has abstract characteristic, difficult, and complex. This characteristic causes the students to have knowledge, understanding, and various conceptions. Students’ various conceptions in Physics learning causes the emergence of discrepancy between alternative and scientific conception called as Intermediate conception. This research aims to description of intermediate conception in learning Physics. This research was qualitative research with literature review design. Data collection was conducted by collecting some literatures either articles or books related to intermediate conception. Data analysis was done by conducting analysis and articles and books synthesis and then drew a conclusion. The research results show that intermediate conception can be described as the conception between alternative conception and scientific conception which represent the pieces of ideas or concepts that have lead to science. Intermediate conception can be categorized into; naive physics, phenomenological intermediate primitives, lateral intermediate conception, and ontological intermediate conception.
