ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of the interpersonal emotion regulation and conscientiousness on team emotional intelligence.

MethodsA total of 731 college students were investigated using the conscientiousness subscale of personality questionnaire, team emotional intelligence scale and leadership positive emotional operation questionnaire.

ResultsThe overall level of college students' team emotional intelligence was general, the team emotional intelligence was positively correlated with conscientiousness(P < 0.01), and the emotional interaction of leaders was positively correlated with conscientiousness and team emotional intelligence(P < 0.01).The conscientiousness influenced the team emotional intelligence through the partial mediating effect of leadership positive emotional interaction(P < 0.01).The indirect effect accounted for 64.22% of the total effect.

ConclusionsThe interpersonal positive emotion regulation plays a partial mediating role between conscientiousness and team emotional intelligence.
