摘　　要：近年来,汤维建教授及其同事何家弘教授分别撰文指出,英美法系的证据制度既不属于自由心证制度,也不属于法定证据制度,而是介于两者之间的一种制度。这样的观点不仅为许多学者接受,也对我国的证据制度建构产生了影响。对其观点之依据进行分析发现证据的关联性不同于关联程度,证据关联性的法定性不等于证明力评价的法定性;陪审员的非自由意志也不能成为证据证明力评价法定性的依据。要之,英美证据评价制度是与大陆法系证据制度不同的另一种自由心证制度,受诉讼价值目标以及审判组织结构的影响,我国统一证据法不能采用英美法系的立法模式。Recently,Prof.Tang Weijian and his colleague He Jiahong pointed that the evidence insitution in the common law countries neither falls into the free evidence evaluation,nor belongs to the legal evidence institution.This viewpoint has been accepted by many scholars,and affected the evidence law in China.By analysis the reason of that viewpoint,we can find that the relation and degree of the relation are two different notions,the limited will of jurors when he evaluates the evidence＇ value could not be the reason of that point.In one word,the institution of evidence is a free evaluation institution,but it＇s quite different from the civil law country.For the object of the procedural law and the framework of the court,a united evidence law being discussed in China should take the model of the civil law countries.
