Abstract

Student cadres are the main force of student work in a university and the "key minority" among students. The efficiency of student cadres at the university directly affects the overall process of student work. The research objectives are: 1) to study factors of role productivity and work efficiency of student cadres in the university; 2) to study the factors that influence the work efficiency of student cadres in the university; and 3) to propose a new model for the work efficiency of student cadres in the university. This study takes ordinary students from Hainan Tropical Ocean University as the research object and uses a survey questionnaire as a data collection tool to conduct a survey on 630 respondents. 623 questionnaires were collected, with 616 valid questionnaires and an effective rate of 97.7%. The questionnaire had reliability (0.98) and validity (0.96). All respondents evaluated the leadership, executive force, learning ability, credibility, and innovation of student cadres. For university student cadres, leadership, executive force, credibility, and innovation are all related to their work efficiency. Multiple regression analysis (stepwise) was used to test the research hypothesis, and the results show that the productivity role of student cadres is closely related to work efficiency, and leadership, executive force, credibility, and innovation all have a significant positive impact on work efficiency.
