    • Abstract:
      The present research examined the perceived teachers' charismatic leadership and entrepreneurial intentions of college students. Based on the theory of emotional contagion, this study proposes a mediating model of entrepreneurial passion between college students' perception of teachers' charismatic leadership and entrepreneurial intentions. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 420 college students in Jiangsu Province, China. The results showed that college students' perceived teachers' charismatic leadership had a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial passion. Moreover, perceived teachers' charismatic leadership of college students was found to have a significant positive predictive effect on entrepreneurial intentions, and entrepreneurial passion had a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial intentions. The mediation model analysis indicated that entrepreneurial passion played a partial mediating role between college students' perception of teachers' charismatic leadership and entrepreneurial intentions. The study results deepened our understanding of the inner influence mechanism of college students' perception of teachers' charismatic leadership and entrepreneurial intentions, in addition to providing a practical basis for college educators.
