Abstract:As a model of global research evaluation,UK universities have implemented seven large-scale research quality assessments since the 1980s.The increasingly perfect research evaluation system has greatly enhanced the scientific influence and international competitiveness of British universities.This article makes an in-depth discussion on the institutional logic of the reform of the research evaluation system from RAE(2008)to REF(2014)in higher education and systematically discusses the evaluation organizational patterns,evaluation indicators and specific contents of REF(2014).At the same time,we establish a quantitative calculation model and analyze the mainstream quality-related research funding model based on REF assessment results.Researches can provide useful experience for the reform of research assessment in Chinese universities.
