description |
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate Muslim academics’ knowledge sharing (KS) behavior
and its relating predictors in the context of Malaysia. Academics being the center entity of education in higher
learning institutions (HLI) has the noble obligation in spreading and sharing knowledge. Moreover, in Islamic
teaching, academics having knowledge must let others know that knowledge can be beneficial in everyday life.
Design/methodology/approach – The underpinning theories used in this study are theory of planned
behavior (TPB) and social capital theory (SCT) for assessing the probable factors that can determine
academics’ KS behavior. This study evaluates 398 Muslim academics in Malaysia for KS behavior in 20 public and 5 private HLIs. Structural equation modeling–partial least square was used as the tool for data analysis. Findings – It was found that all the variables tested in this study were significant, except for commitment. Social network, trust, management support, facilitating conditions and social media are significant predictors in Muslimacademics’ KS behavior. |
