Concepts as cells of knowledge continuously were an important part in research fields of cognitive psychology, representation of conceptive structures should be attached important to because that concretely displayed procedures and outcomes of concepts forming systematic knowledge. Representation was a cognitive construction in natural. But from long on, people laid particular stress on individual construction in cognitive psychology. Because people had many cognitive activities taking play in course of interaction, social construction deeply influenced on individual cognitive outcome. However, the research about social construction in cognitive psychology was verily weak and lack. This study was based on the theories of social construction, team cooperation and representation. The purpose was to study influence of social construction to the representation of conceptive structures through designing different team cognitive conditions (independent-helpful team, dependent team, freely cooperative team and independent team), So that we could improve the students cognitive level by forming rational cognitive construction pattern. The 48 subjects were from 4 classes of Grade one (higher secondary) in ChongQing QingHua middle school, they were divided into matching groups and balance groups were considered in the experimental designing. we also formulated experimental program and practiced rules training. Then we had the cognitive tests of representation of conceptive structures in all of the fourconditions: independent-helpful team, independent team, freely cooperative team and independent team, the conclusions of the experiment as following:1 .On the view of the totality of representation of conceptive structures, true cooperation (independent-helpful and dependent cooperation) had achieved significant effect. Among them, independent-helpful team was more significant.2.Different team cooperation conditions had different influence to students that were in different levels, which resulted fluctuation of original stratification different in different teams.3.whichever kind of representation task, truly cooperative teams had achieved better achievement than the other teams, specially the independent-helpful team was superior to the other three kinds of teams significantly on profound processing as well as multiplicative and profound processing.4.The structures of representation in the independent-helpful team was clear and abundant in content; which in the dependent team was low in clearness and content abundance; independent team and freely cooperative team were verily weak in structure of representation and content.5.when self-confidence and interest of cognition were considered, truly cooperative teams were stronger than the independent team and freely cooperative team.6.If the starting point and cognitive conditions were identical, girl students could achieved the same goal as the boy students or ever better than them.7. when the starting point and cognitive conditions were identical, no significant different was existed between different cognitive patterns, but the field-independent students had somewhat superiority.
