Abstract

[Purpose/significance] Information is the carrier of influence transmission, compared with the fuzziness and concealment of influence, the process of information transmission is more clear and visible. Therefore, according to the framework of influence transmission between think tanks and governments, this paper proposes an evaluation framework of think tanks influence. [Method/process] After analyzing the key steps of influence transmission between think tanks and governments, this paper developed a framework of influence transmission. Then, though structured interviews with some cadres that from related departments of Chinese ministry, it enriched the framework's information transmission details. [Result/conclusion] System constraints have great effects on the capacities of communication link and information demand matching. The public communication capacity of think tank has greater influence on the adjustment capacity of information filtering. Data collection capacity, scientific and objective data analysis capacity and expert insight constitute the capacities of think tanks to collect and produce information.
