The studying is the process of constructing knowledge by students, and motivate of study is an important factor in their learning. The Self-determine theory(SDT)describes motivation as a continuum with external regulation and intrinsic motivation as two ends, and divides the extrinsic motivation as four sorts of regulations according to the different level of internalization, such as external regulation, introjected regulation, identified regulation, and integrated regulation. The more internalized, the more extrinsic motivation will be similar to intrinsic motivation as to the effect on one's autonomy or self-determination. In the studying, how to internalized extrinsic motivation is the goal of education should achieve. The studying ability of self-regulation of high-school students is in the consciousness by the spontaneous process of development. To enhance their learning initiative activity and their self-learning ability has significance on not only source of students of colleges and universities but also on the personnel training.
