Sharing Behavior

This study aimed at identifying the relation of organizational climate and its dimensions from the PMCO measuring test for organizational climate (Cardenas & Villamizar, 2008, as cited in Cardenas, Arciniegas y Barrera, 2009) - in knowledge-sharing behavior, which was measured from the psychosocial variables and organizational conditions of knowledge-sharing behavior test (Castañeda y Fernandez, 2007). 100 participants from two types of organizations participated on this study: one of private nature and one public. A correlation of 0.578 between organizational climate and knowledge-sharing behavior was found. When carrying out an analysis of each organization, it was evident that the level of correlation between climate and knowledge-sharing behavior was highly significant in the public organization: There was a reliability level higher to 99%. There was no correlation found between the two variables studied in the private organization -with an r of 0.093 to 95%. As for the dimensions of climate and knowledge-sharing behavior, the results showed that in all public universities (including level of work, which got the lowest relation) these are statistically significant to 99.9%. In the private university only a relation to the personal growth dimension of 95% was found.

This paper considers regulatory reform in Jamaica's telecommunication industry. "Currently, Jamaican telecommunication operates under a multi-sector regulator, the Office of Utility Regulation (OUR), which has oversight of all public utilities including telecommunications, water, gas, and electricity. The reform under consideration in Jamaica is the transition towards a single-sector independent regulator, referred to throughout this research as the integrated regulator, with monitoring responsibility for converged media services, including broadcasting and Information Communication Technology (ICT)"--From the introduction, page 7.

Sharing Behavior

As an essential group in knowledge innovation, researchers are encouraged to exchange ideas with each other for further brainstorm through advanced communication technology. However, efficient online knowledge sharing among researchers is still limited. Although past literature proposes a series of motivators of online knowledge sharing, the differences in the effects of motivators remain in dispute. Thus, it is time to understand how motivators influence each other and inspire scientists to share knowledge and promote virtual communities. Based on the self-determination theory, this study proposes a model with several factors and analyze 301 Chinese researchers' data in an online WeChat cross-disciplinary research community by adopting SmartPls 2.0 and SPSS 22. The results reveal the effects of several antecedents and mediating effects of altruism and knowledge sharing behavior and report the differences of results among different demographic groups. This study enriches the literature in knowledge sharing on social media and proposes further research points to researchers and useful advice to practitioners.

Sharing Behavior

This study aims to evaluate the willingness of knowledge sharing and acquisition behaviors among KIPSAS’s employees to comply with the values of Al-Ta’allum. These are aligned with the principles of knowledge management. The main objective is to identify the differences in knowledge sharing of the staff with their knowledge acquisition behavior. Thus, identifying the state of readiness among staff. This study utilizes an exploratory approach to examine these phenomena. Related documents were analyzed to get an overview of the factors and values of Al-Ta’allum that have been identified and examined within the study. Questionnaires were sent to 129 respondents from academic and non-academic staffs. But only 62 responses were gathered. There were also differences when the respondents were divided and analyzed according to responsibilities and gender. Within the context of this article, we found the overall relevance of values stipulated in Al-Ta’allum to staff of KIPSAS. This study is concerned with examining the knowledge sharing behavior of staff in a PHEI. It highlights the differences in their knowledge sharing and acquisition behavior. This allows management and planner of such institutions to plan the Knowledge Management (KM) initiatives and processes with these special value indicators such as Al-Ta’allum to be taken into consideration. Based on the result, KIPSAS is able to manage knowledge sharing activities in a more effective method.
