Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the evolution and diffusion characteristics of policies related to life expectancy(LE)and healthy life expectancy(HLE)in China from 1982 to 2024 using a biometric approach to policy analysis,revealing the patterns of policy diffusion.Methods:By retrieving databases such as PKULAW.com,We comprehensively collected 701 policy documents closely related to LE and HLE during the period(including 62 central policies and 639 local policies),the policy diffusion process was quantified in four dimensions:diffusion intensity,diffusion breadth,diffusion speed and diffusion direction by using the policy—reference network analysis method.Results:Related policy has gone through the germination period(1982-2001),the development period(2002-2010),the rapid rise period(2011-2015)and the four stages of innovation and pioneering period(2016—present).Policy diffusion is influenced by the hierarchical level of the issuing institution,policy type,and regional economic development level.Policies promulgated by central institutions exhibit stronger and broader diffusion,with guideline—type policies diffusing most widely.The diffusion rate follows a trend of"initial growth,followed by deceleration,and then a slight increase."The primary diffusion directions are vertical diffusion from central to local levels and horizontal diffusion among peers.Conclusion:The diffusion of policies related to LE and HLE is characterized by significant stages,regions and levels.
