摘要

The study focuses on the research performance of Double First-Class (DFC) universities in China.A theoretical framework based on economic theory and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method for a novel evaluation model is proposed.The model is performed on a sample of 41 participant DFC universities in China.Using data collected from these universities,it was found that there is no consistency between performance ranking,input ranking,and output ranking,with the best ranked universities far from the most efficient.These findings provide empirical evidence of DFC universities' research performance situation and suggest strategies that the government can use to propel their sustainable development.
