This paper aims to recognize the level of graphical information’s level of processing that reached Physics stu-dents at University. The study covers the influence of Cartesian graphs and the content represented.

Este trabajo busca reconocer el nivel de procesamiento de la información gráfica que alcanzan estudiantes universitarios de física. Se estudia la influencia del tipo de gráfico cartesiano y del contenido representado. Se diseñaron especialmente dos tareas de lápiz y papel: una correspondiente a la unidad “Vibraciones y ondas” y otra a la unidad “Polarización”. Los resultados mostraron que los estudiantes estaban familiarizados con los gráficos cartesianos y que accedieron al nivel de la información explícita e implícita sin mayores dificultades. Por otra parte, el procesamiento a nivel de la información conceptual fue menos frecuente y estuvo fuertemente influenciado por el contenido representado lo que debe ser tenido en cuenta a la hora de orientar las actividades de enseñanza.
