Doctor Communication

In tandem with internet development and widespread social media use, e-health communities have begun to emerge in recent years. These communities allow doctors to access forums anywhere, anytime, seek or exchange medical information online, find literature, and so on. This is convenient and can solve some problems for doctors while also promoting doctor communication. This study collected and collated 102 doctors in the “Lilac Forum” and used social network tools to quantify the overall network density, centrality, core–periphery structure, and structural hole indicators of doctors’ information exchange from a social-capital perspective. The results showed that the frequency of interaction between doctors differed because of differences in the identities and participation of doctors in the e-health community. The density of the doctors’ information dissemination network (0.228) and network cohesion (0.610) were relatively high. Thus, the doctors were more closely connected, and information was easily spread. At the same time, doctors with higher professional titles had obvious location characteristics, familiarity and trust, and high levels of reciprocity. They could obtain redundant information in the network and were more likely to influence the behavior of other doctors. This study’s findings provide support for improving information exchange among doctors in e-health communities and improving the service levels of the platforms.

Efficacy Profile

While community-based monitoring is becoming increasingly commonplace, evidence as to its functioning remains inconsistent. Based on Ugandan village network and survey data, this article studies community-based monitoring from a social-capital and perceived-efficacy perspective. From a social-capital perspective, the prospects for community-based monitoring look promising as there is a high social-capital stock and an efficient information-sharing network galvanizing information for a few key individuals. The dominant efficacy profiles are also encouraging as there is an abundance of ‘followers’ (with high belief in collective capabilities) and some ‘leaders’ for collective action (with high belief in individual and collective capabilities). And yet, few community-based monitoring activities are undertaken. Our article shows that only the intersection of both theoretical lenses explains the underperformance in community-based monitoring, as those actors who are central in the information-sharing network do not have a ‘leadership’ efficacy profile while those who are ‘leaders’ are not central in the village information network.

Internal Relationships

The main purpose of the present research is to identify the internal relationships among the dimensions of knowledge management from the viewpoint of social capital. The statistical population includes 50 Professors and experts in the field, who have been defined as connoisseurs. The data have been collected through the use of the researcher-designed questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by content validity, and its reliability was determined by test–retest method. The results indicate that the dimensions of knowledge management, from the social capital perspective, have relatively strong, reciprocal systemic relations with each other. Among the dimensions of knowledge management studied in the research, the "leadership and management" dimension has been identified as the strongest dimension from the viewpoint of leading power, and the "intellectual capital" has been recognised as having the highest rate of dependence on the other dimensions of knowledge management regarding the social capital of knowledge management. The results obtained from the identification and evaluation of the systematic relations can be used as a guide by managers and decision-makers in designing strategic programs concerning knowledge management within the organisation while having social capital in mind.
