Research on the Characteristics and Correlation between the Emotional Intelligence and Leadership Practice of Medical College Students

摘要

The purpose of this research is to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership practice of Medical College students, and to provide theoretical basis for cultivating excellent talents in the new era. Using the Emotional Intelligence Scale and the Student Leadership practice Scale, 2 980 medical college students were selected were selected for research through group testing. The result shows that the scores of emotional intelligence (M = 438.06, SD = 46.51) and leadership practice (M = 110.38, SD = 15.48) of medical college students were on the middle or high level. There was a significant positive correlation between the total score of emotional intelligence and the total score of leadership practice (r = 0.457, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in the scores of emotional intelligence in gender (t=-0.059, P > 0.05), but there was significant difference in the scores of leadership practice (t=3.125, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in the scores of emotional intelligence in students' origin (t=-1.870, P > 0.05), but there was significant difference in the scores of leadership practice (t=-2.983, P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in the scores of emotional intelligence and leadership practice between subject types (p > 0.05). Emotional intelligence can positively predict leadership practice (t = 26.647, P < 0.001). Therefore, emotional intelligence is closely related to leadership practice, which can be increased by improving students' emotional intelligence.
