Abstract:

Objective To quantitatively analyze and evaluate the content of rehabilitation policy for people with disabilities in China.

Methods This study focused on ten national policies of disability rehabilitation issued from 2021 to 2023. It employed text mining techniques to process policy texts and constructed a policy modeling consistency index model for disability rehabilitation policies in China. The relevant policies were evaluated and analyzed quantitatively.

Results The disability rehabilitation policies in China were relatively comprehensive in terms of policy transparency, operational mechanisms and policy nature. However, there was still a need for optimization in terms of policy perspectives, target groups, incentive mechanisms, and other aspects.

Conclusion The overall quality of disability rehabilitation policy texts at the national level in China is relatively good. There is a need to further enhance the predictability of policy objectives, clarify the responsibilities and division of labor among various departments, and improve policy incentive mechanisms in future policy formulation, which will further refine China's disability rehabilitation policy system and contribute to high-quality development of the disability cause.
