Abstract We study the problem of the behaviour of cosmological gravitational waves under conformal transformations. In spite of the apparent triviality of this question, the informations we can obtain from gravitational waves in the so-called Einstein's and Jordan's frame are not the same, mainly with respect to the choice of the initial conditions and of graviton production. The only exception seems to occur in string cosmology due to the duality properties.
