Abstract

In recent years, research into self-regulation in the field of psychology one of the hot topics as self-regulation is a complex, integrated process involving out key variables and self-motivation process. According to Bandura's social cognitive view of self-regulation theory, research, self-regulation is an individual, behavioral, and environmental interaction of three factors; self-regulation processes and their associated beliefs can be divided into three cycle stages: forecast, the operating or volitional control, self-reflection; social and natural environment affect an individual's self-regulation; self-regulatory function of the offset largely the result of ineffective control techniques and operating forecasts; self-regulation skills, showing a level of multi-level development. Meanwhile, the multi-level self-regulation skills level in several areas need further confirmation. The research on the self-regulatory theory has been focused recently because self-regulation is a complicated and integrated process, which relates to the key motivational variables and self-processes. There are several points of Bandura's views: Firstly, self-regulatory process is a kind of interaction among three factors: person, behavior and environment; Secondly, self-regulatory process and the beliefs which accompany it can be divided into three circulative stages: prediction, operational or volitional control and self-reflection; Thirdly, social environment can have an influence on self-regulation; Fourthly, dysfunctions in self-regulation should be attributed to invalid prediction and operational control skills; Finally, the development of self-regulatory skill presents a more-level development
