Abstract: We integrated the psychological-testing method and cross-section method into this study.In order to explore the developmental characteristics of 13 kinds of thinking styles (such as Legislative Style,Executive Style and Judicial Style) among high-school students,we administrated the Sternberg-Wagner thinking style scale to 826 high-school students.The findings are as follows:(1) in the process of problem-solving,the junior high-school students's levels of Executive,Judicial,Hierarchic,Oligarchic,External and Liberal styles are dramatically higher than those of senior high school students; but the junior high-school student's levels of Global style is dramatically lower than those of senior high school students.(2) the male student's levels of Internal style is dramatically higher than those of female's,but the male student's levels of Hierarchic and Oligarchic styles are dramatically lower than those of female's.
