Framing effect is made up on the basis of prospect theory, which is a typical case of the descriptive decision theory, but violates the formal decision theory. In recent years, the research on the phenomenon of the framing effect is fruitful, but the research of the inner cogni- tive mechanism of framing effect is relatively poor. In order to further reveal the internal me- chanism of effect of framework in risk decision, the study discusses the effect of working memory load on framing effect on the basis of the theory of dual-process, using 2 (positive framing, nega- tive framing) × 2 (working memory load, no working memory load) among subjects experimental design. In the experiment, 32 boys and 48 girls were randomly select
