(first paragraph from Chapter 6: Discussion, 6.1: Summary of findings:)
The relevance of the results of this study can be best expressed by presenting them in a different order from the way they were reported in Chapter 5. The results can be thought of as a description of what a student goes through when introduced to a new concept in quantum mechanics. This will give a picture that exposes the extent of the difficulties students encounter.

Excellent literature review

This thesis has one of the best literature summaries I've seen in the subject of quantum mechanics education research.

I might also add that appendix 6 file appears to be broken.
