This article describes a study focused on examining student (15- to 17-year-old students possess just before taking their first physics course) preconceptions about vector characteristics that physics teachers consider so obvious that they are not discussed in class. So consideration of these characteristics is crucial to effective instruction. The author uses seven vector characteristics and three tasks to interview students and then presents the most common student preconceptions regarding each of the implicit vector characteristics.
