In our research on student use of resources in learning quantum mechanics, we have begun to realize that a student often needs to make judgments among competing ideas. We start to see the potential to develop a new category of resources, meta-resources, to model the views and beliefs as well as meta-cognitive processes that students use in making judgments. Examples from student interviews are discussed as initial evidence for a larger scale investigation toward this area.
