Abstract Background One noteworthy concern within the realm of education is the level of engagement demonstrated by students. Among the factor that can have a crucial role in this domain is teacher support, especially emotional support which has an impact on several aspects of learners’ education. Furthermore, various studies have investigated the relationship between Emotional Intelligence (EI) and learners’ engagement. Methods Accordingly, this study investigated the possible role of trait EI and the emotional support of teachers and how these constructs may work to associate learners’ engagement. For this objective, a total of 309 Chinese students across different colleges and universities in 5 provinces of Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Hubei, and Shaanxi were enrolled. They were 126 females and 183 males, with ages ranging from 18 to 30 years old (Mean = 24.6). Results The results of this research through running Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) demonstrated that teachers’ emotional support and trait EI both can associate students’ learning engagement. The final measurement model shows that about 73% of changes in learners’ engagement can be associated by their trait EI and teachers’ emotional support. Conclusions This study underscores the importance of emotional support from teachers and the trait of EI in relation to students’ engagement in learning. Both factors were shown to play a significant role in associating student engagement. Moreover, this study could potentially have wider impacts on members of academic teams. |
