Sažetak
By development and implementation of science and technology, interest of high school students in concepts of modern physics is growing in many countries. High school students expect that understanding of modern physics, such as quantum physics, special relativity, elementary particles and biophysics can help to solve complex problems and understand various real systems of data and information, which makes them competent for decision-making as responsible citizens and future professionals. In this paper we have analysed understanding of key concepts in modern physics by using results of State Matura in Physics in Croatia. The State Matura in Croatia takes place at the end of the final grade of high school. Physics is one of elective courses at the State Matura and each year is the most represented elective course with about 25 % of total students participated at the State Matura. We have used data from recent decade and analysed the difference of understanding of modern physics concepts between generations and other characteristics of students.
