Abstract: Evidence-based practice originated from evidence-based medicine, and is widely used in the fields of nursing, clinical psychology and social work, and has formed an interdisciplinary evidence-based practice model in the field of human services, reflecting the origin of modern scientific methodology that combines positivism and humanism. The policy science has a distinct value orientation. The introduction of evidence-based methods in social policy research promotes the scientific processes of research and decision-making while emphasizing the role of client preferences in the service provision process. Against the background of the beginning of a new era for China, the development of evidence-based social policies is of great value for accurately grasping the goals of social policies, strengthening the effectiveness of social policies and better reflecting the demands of socially disadvantaged groups for a better life. To this end, evidence-based practice has an important implication for China's social policy decision-making and its research in realizing the transformation of thinking mode, strengthening the combination of research and application, and understanding of the mechanism of policy implementation.

Key words: evidence-based practice, evidence-based social policy, new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics
