Abstract/Summary

The purpose of this research is to identify which type of perceived leadership style-transformational and transactional leadership-, together with perceived emotive communication ability, and susceptibility to emotional contagion influence the organizational involvement of student organization members. A total of 213 members of student organizations participated in the survey. Factorial ANOVA analysis showed that only perceived transformational leadership influence the members' organizational involvement (p < .02). However, multiple regression analysis showed that the members are most likely to be involved when they are: (a) under a transformational leader (p < .04, (b) under a leader with good emotive communication ability (p < .03) and (c) are susceptible to emotional contagion (p < .03). Applying the Affective Event Theory, these predictors can be considered as affective events which can affect the members.
