Abstract

The relationship between career success and emotional intelligence has garnered substantial academic attention, prompting this systematic literature review to critically assess its impact. Spanning from 1995 to 2022, this review adopts the PRISMA and TCCM frameworks to examine 36 studies, focusing on the role of emotional intelligence as a predictor, mediator, moderator, and criterion in career success. The evidences predominantly indicate that emotional intelligence is a critical antecedent for various career-related outcomes including objective and subjective career success. Further, emotional intelligence serves as a pivotal mediator in linking personality traits, career planning, and self-efficacy to career outcomes, as elucidated in few studies. Moreover, some studies reveal its moderating role between career commitment and both objective and subjective career success. Additionally, emotional intelligence emerges as an outcome influencing emotional exhaustion and balance. The review synthesizes findings from nine theoretical frameworks, establishing a robust link between emotional intelligence and career success. This review not only affirms emotional intelligence as a substantial contributor to career advancement but also opens avenues for future research and practical applications in organizational contexts.

情商有助于事业成功吗？系统文献综述提供的证据

职业成功与情商之间的关系引起了学术界的广泛关注，促使本系统性文献综述对其影响进行批判性评估。从1995年到2022年，本综述采用PRISMA和TCCM框架对36项研究进行了考察，重点研究了情商在职业成功中的预测、中介、调节和标准作用。主要证据表明，情商是各种职业相关结果（包括客观和主观职业成功）的关键先决条件。此外，情商在人格特质、职业规划和自我效能与职业生涯结果之间起着关键的中介作用，这在少数研究中得到了阐释。此外，一些研究揭示了情商在职业承诺与客观和主观职业成功之间的调节作用。此外，情商也是影响情绪耗竭和平衡的一个结果。本综述综合了九个理论框架的研究结果，在情商与职业成功之间建立了强有力的联系。这篇综述不仅肯定了情商对职业发展的重要贡献，还为未来的研究和在组织环境中的实际应用开辟了道路。
