This study incorporates computerized simulation models of qualitative, conceptual problem solving and quantitative problem solving to examine qualitative physics knowledge acquisition during textbook-based physics training. Researchers found that qualitative knowledge was acquired on the basis of explicit textbook information; but there were also cases of qualitative learning on the basis of implicit information, which led to less frequent use of incorrect qualitative preknowledge.
