Although previous research has found that authentic leadership has a negative effect on employee burnout through structural empowerment, lack of psychological empowerment in the research cannot present a complete picture on how authentic leadership influences burnout because employees must experience being psychologically empowered for empowerment to be effective. Drawing on empowerment-related theories, this study integrates the three different perspectives of empowerment (authentic leadership, structural empowerment, and psychological empowerment) to examine their effects on emotional exhaustion, the core component of burnout, at multiple levels of analysis. Using a sample of 378 teachers from 59 primary and secondary schools in China, multilevel structural equation modelling results revealed that: (1) authentic leadership had an indirect effect on psychological empowerment partially through structural empowerment, (2) psychological empowerment played a full mediating role in the relationship between structural empowerment and emotional exhaustion, and (3) structural empowerment and psychological empowerment sequentially mediated the effect of authentic leadership on emotional exhaustion. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

We conducted a survey with 554 kindergarten teachers in China to explore the relationship between psychological empowerment and retention intention, along with the mediating role of psychological capital and the moderating role of professional emotion. The results show that psychological empowerment had a positive effect on retention intention through the mediating effect of psychological capital. Additionally, professional emotion significantly moderated the effects of psychological capital on retention intention. Thus, we confirmed that psychological capital mediated the effects of psychological empowerment on retention intention and that professional emotion moderated the second half of this mediation process. The results of our study have theoretical and practical significance for proposing intervention measures to improve the retention intention of kindergarten teachers.
