Abstract  According to the cognitive response theory, this study revealed the inner mechanism ofleader humor triggering subordinate’s positive emotion based on the paired data of 43 team leaders and 317subordinates.The results of multilevel analysis are as follows:Leader humor can effectively trigger but only through perceived leader humor has an indirect effect on subordinate’s positive emotions; Subordinate’s humorous preference can enhance the predictive validity of perceived leader humor to leader-triggered positive emotions; Subordinate’s humorous meta-message sensitivity can’t enhance the driving effectiveness of leader humor to perceived leader humor.
Key wordsleader humor      perceived leader humor      leader-triggered positive emotion      humorous meta-messagesensitivity      humorous liking
