Abstract

In the form of questionnaire, 807 college students were selected to explore the relationship among psychological capital, positive emotion and self-control. The results show that: (1) college students’ psychological capital and its sub-dimensions are significantly correlated with their positive emotion, as well as their self-control and its sub-dimensions. Their positive emotion is also significantly correlated with their self-control and its sub-dimensions. (2) Positive emotion plays a partial mediating role in the influence of psychological capital on self-control of college students.
