Research has shown that creative thinking is the impact of analogical reasoning an important factor, and the working memory of the sub-components of the involvement of analogical reasoning cognitive activities completed. However, creative thinking and working memory common to analogical reasoning on little impact at home and abroad. This study will explore the different levels of secondary school students in creative thinking analogical reasoning capacity of the differences and tried to reveal the level of creative thinking, working memory capacity on the impact of analogical reasoning.The study conducts the research combined with the methods of the analogical reasoning test and experiments on the relations among the creative thinking, analogy reasoning and working memory among the students in primary middle school and high middle school. The results were as follows:(1)whatever linguistic reasoning or picture reasoning are performed, subjects from the high middle school students took less time rather than the students in primary middle school. However, no differences were found in the correction rates between two grade.(2)The significant main effect lies in the reaction time of analogy reasoning on the level of creative thinking, reasoning types and groups. And in primary middle school students between the groups and types of reasoning there was a significant interactive. And in the high middle school students between the creative thinking and types of reasoning there was a significant interactive. Whereas, the significant main effect lies in the corrections of analogy reasoning of reasoning types and groups.(3)Whatever linguistic reasoning or picture reasoning are performed by the primary middle school students, subjects from the high level of creative thinking took less time rather than the low level of its counterparts. In the reaction time of picture analogy reasoning, significant differences are obvious between the groups of the primary middle school students, However, no differences were found in the correction rates of linguistic analogy reasoning between two groups. The picture reasoning is performed by the high middle school students, subjects from the high level of creative thinking took less time rather than the low level of its counterparts. However, no differences were found in the correction rates between two groups.(4)The reaction time of primary middle school students, significant differences are obvious between the groups. So far as the picture analogy reasoning is concerned, the high creative thinking are obviously different. As opposed to the high creative thinking, no differences were found among the groups. The reaction time of primary middle school students,, significant of linguistic reasoning differences are obvious between the groups. In the high middle school students, No differences were found in the correction rates of picture and linguistic analogy reasoning between two groups. The high and low levels creative thinking of the high middle school students, no differences were found among the groups.
