A method of a forming process for a variable resistive element, which is performed in short time comparable to the pulse forming and a writing current in a switching action is the same level as that of the DC forming, is provided. In the forming process, a variable resistive element is changed by voltage pulse application from an initial high resistance state just after produced to a variable resistance state where the switching action is performed. The forming process includes a first step of applying a first pulse having a voltage amplitude lower than a threshold voltage at which the resistance of the variable resistive element is lowered, to between both electrodes of the variable resistive element, and a second step of applying a second pulse having a voltage amplitude having the same polarity as the first pulse and not lower than the threshold voltage, thereto after the first step.
