| Summary: | Assessing the academic impact of scientific research had made great achievement, but non-academic impact had been neglected for long time in China. This paper used documentary research to analyze representative evaluation frameworks and then summarize the corresponding relation between different evaluation frameworks and their guiding theories. This paper believed that people need to analyze the different conditions when using them because of different frameworks with different background. At last this paper advocated the non-academic impact of research should be paid attention to knowledge consumers from the wider social class, not only to decision makers. It was also well worth studying the timing of non-academic impact of research. |
