In this paper,some mistakable statements and explanations for the state superposition principle of quantum mechanics are analyzed and compared.The status of the state superposition principle in quantum mechanics is discussed,and some opinions about the teaching methods of the state superposition principle are given.
this article presents a reflection on the concepts of state and principle\nsuperposition within classical and quantum context. Are highlighted the strategies\nthat serve as the basis for the explanation of phenomena at the atomic level,\nexplanation than requires a formalization and an image as a support for their\nelaboration. In addition, the processes of formalization are characterized by the\nconstruction of relations than gives account of the phenomenon. In this sense, are\ngiven examples than allow conceptualize the notion of state and the superposition\nprinciple within the two contexts which play a key role in the formalism of every\nphysical theory. This analysis allows us to contribute elements for the teaching the\nquantum mechanics giving the possibility of develop a different pedagogical and\ndidactic practice than the usual.
