Summary: | Knowledge sharing (KS) is a culture that has been fostered and
supported in higher learning institutions (HLIs) in Malaysian. This research
applies Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Social Capital Theory (SCT) to
determine the factors associated with Malaysian academic's KS intention in
HLIs. The results indicate that social networking is an important factor of
academics’ attitude to KS, while commitment and trust do not influence their
attitude to KS. Using social media is found to be a significant factor of
perceived behavioral control towards KS. Further, academics’ attitude to KS
and perceived behavioral control towards KS are found to be significant
determinants of their KS intention, while management support for subjective
norm of KS is not significant for KS intention. |
