Abstract
This study carried out a survey of the main papers produced over the past decades about the understanding and thinking of the students in a measurement situation. It led to the development of a model-synthesis called Point and Set Paradigm. To develop research in this subject, a theoretical refinement is proposed to characterize the current paradigm into Categories of Conceptual Understandings which will contribute to a more thorough and qualitative understanding of students' conceptions regarding measurement.
