The Spirit of Jiageng,contained in Jiageng culture,is highly regarded by Party and state leaders as an impor-tant part of the Chinese national spirit.Itis crucial for college students,the inheritors of the Spirit of Jiageng,to have a sense of its identity.The study is conducted based on a questionnaire survey in 15 higher education institutions in Xiamen to reveal col-lege students'identification with the Spirit of Jiageng.The results show that college students have a certain understanding of the Jiageng Spirit and have multiple channels to learn about it,but their cognition is not comprehensive and accurate enough,and needs to be improved;their sense of identity shows abundant cognition and emotion,but insufficient action;there is a signifi-cant positive correlation between cognitive identity,emotional identity,and behavioral identity.Based on the conclusion,sug-gestions are proposed to enhance college students'identity with the Jiageng Spirit.
