Misconceptions were one of the problems in understanding physics concepts at the elementary, junior, senior high schools, and even college levels. The purpose of this study was to identify and describe the misconceptions that occur in physics learning. The method used in this study was literature study. The analysis technique used in this study was comparing the strenghts and weaknesses of the articles obtained. In this case, 10 articles were found and used from 2012 to 2019. The results showed that students' understanding of physics topics were still very low, which was due to initial misconceptions. The topics that were still frequently contain misconception included physical quantity and unit, mechanics, work and energy, electricity, optics, and magnetism. © 2024 Author(s).
