- Research on Conceptual Change has paid relatively less attention to the social than to the physical science domain. In particular, research on conceptual change in economic understanding has been fairly sparse and loosely connected. Given the potential significance of citizen’s economic understanding in delimiting government responses to globalisation (Davies 2006) this topic is worthy of further study. This paper reports on a small project in economics that investigates conceptions about the provision of free goods and services, drawing on evidence from students in different age groups. The paper considers previous work ( Furnham 1994), Leister & Halamachi 2006) of studies younger students, as well as the work within phenomenography (Marton), and students’ development of understanding of price. Results from this work conclude that :price, context, inconsistency, important in rel to citizenship.
