Taking 203 poor village directors in related counties and districts of Changzhi city in Shanxi province as the object of investigation, this paper analyzes the effect of different poverty alleviation methods by using Ordered logit regression. The results show that the effect of poverty alleviation with inclusive effect is obvious, the effect of poverty alleviation which deviates from the needs of poor groups is unclear,the project-based approaches to poverty alleviation even reduce the effectiveness of poverty reduction.
