Perkongsian pengetahuan merupakan kesediaan pekerja untuk menyumbang dan  kemampuan beliau untuk mengumpul pengetahuan daripada pekerja lain dalam organisasi. Kajian lepas mendapati perkongsian pengetahuan yang berjaya akan menggalak inovasi pekerja dan meningkatkan prestasi organisasi. Namun, terdapat pelbagai halangan dalam perkongsian pengetahuan seperti faktor manusia dan teknologi. Matlamat kajian ini adalah untuk membina dan mengesahkan model perkongsian pengetahuan sektor swasta (MPS) yang menggabung dua pendekatan utama iaitu pendekatan teknikal dan bukan teknikal. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk memeriksa pengaruh individu, organisasi dan teknologi terhadap amalan perkongsian pengetahuan di kalangan pekerja serta hubungannya dengan inovasi dan prestasi organisasi. Tiga teori yang menyokong pembinaan model MPS bagi memeriksa tiga faktor pengaruh adalah Social Capital Theory, Institutional Theory dan Adaptive Structuration Theory. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kuantitatif dengan teknik soal selidik dan kaedah kualitatif dengan teknik temu bual. Data dianalisis menggunakan SPSS bagi analisis deskriptif dan demografi, manakala model disahkan mengguna Structural Equation Modelling. Kajian mendapati pengaruh individu; ‘berkongsi visi dan matlamat’ dan ‘kepercayaan antara pekerja’, pengaruh organisasi; ‘tugas saling bergantungan’ dan ‘sokongan pengurusan atasan’ dan pengaruh teknologi; ‘kesetiaan’ menggunakan sistem pengurusan pengetahuan mempengaruhi amalan perkongsian pengetahuan. Seterusnya, amalan perkongsian pengetahuan mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan inovasi dan inovasi mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan ke atas prestasi organisasi.

Survey Responses

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to advance new insights into how internal and external social capital (SC) facets influence exploratory and exploitative innovation directly, and indirectly through absorptive capability (AC), by drawing on the relational and knowledge-based views. Design/methodology/approach The paper empirically tests the developed model using 135 survey responses from managers in construction contractor firms. Data were factor analysed, and path estimates determined using partial least squares structural equation modelling to test the hypotheses. Findings The results reveal that each social capital (SC) facet has direct benefits for both exploratory and exploitative innovation. The findings also show a mix of full and partial mediation paths between the facets of SC and innovation types through AC. Originality/value Extant research linking SC facets with innovation categories is fragmented. Added to this fragmentation is the dearth of studies linking both intra-firm and inter-firm SC with exploratory and exploitative innovation in firms. This paper makes a novel contribution by testing a model of the direct and indirect links (through AC) between internal and external SC and both exploratory and exploitative innovation in the context of construction contractor firms. The findings show how both facets of SC are necessary for exploratory and exploitative innovation. It reveals the types of relationships and capabilities necessary for specific innovation objectives.

The Relationship

The relationship between social network sites and social capital has received much research attention. However, two research gaps can be identified in the existing literature. First, only few studies have examined online social capital as a resource in online social networks. In this regard, it is not clear how to validly measure online social capital. Second, while the factors influencing social capital, among them properties of an individual’s social network, have been investigated in offline settings, such factors have not yet been investigated in terms of online social capital. Addressing these gaps, we asked 1000 Facebook users to provide information on their Facebook usage and online friendship network. Employing structural equation modelling for analysing the survey data, we show that Williams’ Internet Social Capital Scales, which are commonly used to assess social capital in offline settings, can be used to validly measure online social capital. Moreover, we find that some of the variables influencing offline social capital, among them similarity in terms of sociodemographic attributes, seem less important in an online setting.

The aim of the investigation was to explain impact of various dimensions of social capital on cooperation. In the attempt we constructed a research model by utilizing social capital theory. Ultimately cooperation within research and development teams in textile industry in Uzbekistan was assessed. A survey method was applied and a questionnaire was developed and administered to. Structural Equation Modelling together with multiple regression was used to test the predictive value of our model on the sample of 170 Research and development department members. Findings suggest there is a large positive impact of social capital on cooperation. Therefore, the study confirms the value of social capital in explaining cooperation. The study helps managers and team members to better understand the importance of social capital generation on projects and in organizations. The developed concept can be used as a framework for facilitating cooperation for governments, research institutions, academic institutions and companies.

Innovation Community

Purpose As users often lack the motivation to contribute their ideas and knowledge in open innovation communities, it is necessary to identify the determinants of users’ contribution. This paper aims to examine users’ contribution in open innovation communities based on the social capital theory. Design/methodology/approach The authors collected 474 valid responses from a survey and adopted structural equation modeling (SEM) to conduct data analysis. Findings The results indicated that social interaction, which includes informational and emotional interaction, has a significant effect on social capital, which in turn affects users’ contribution. Research limitations/implications The results imply that companies need to facilitate users’ interactions and develop social capital to promote their contribution in open innovation communities. Originality/value Although previous research has found the effect of individual motivations such as perceived benefits and behavioural control on innovation community users’ behaviour, it has seldom considered the effect of social capital embedded within the social relationship networking. This research tries to fill the gap and the results disclosed the mechanism underlying open innovation community users’ contribution.

Service Quality Dimensions

With the real-time communications prevalent in Facebook, it has been emerged as an increasingly popular social media that facilitates the bridging and bonding of social capital. This study reviews the consequences of service qualities for social capital through multidimensional service quality and social capital theory. Desired information is collected using a structured questionnaire comprising items of Facebook outcome quality, environment quality, interaction quality, satisfaction, usage intention, bridging, and bonding social capital, and analysed by the structural equation modelling. Results confirm that outcome and environment quality have significant positive influence on users’ satisfaction and usage intention. Meanwhile, bridging and bonding social capital are highly predicted by satisfaction and usage intention, leading to the conclusion that Facebook helps to build and maintain social capital by increasing satisfaction and usage intention. The findings provide valuable insights for practitioners to shape a more balanced job-social capital relationship by adjusting service quality dimensions.

Vital Component

Past research considers both fiscal federalism and entity governance principle determinants of local government social capital. However, no study is conclusive enough on this point. Guided by social capital theory, this study surveyed 28 districts, 5 municipalities, and 311 sub-counties of Uganda’s north-eastern and eastern regions to investigate fiscal federalism-entity governance-social capital linkages. Structural equation modeling results reveal resource utilization, bureaucracy, and corruption; prominent fiscal federalism attributes, social capital predictors. Its other equally-vital component; job creation, depicts no predictive powers. Moreover, entity governance mediates the fiscal federalism-social capital relationship. Implications of these findings to both theory and practice are discussed.

The research aimed at studying social capital role in land degradation solving of Tulis watershed. The parameters under observation were social capital (trust, norm, and social networking), social-economic condition, and land management in Tulis watershed. The parameters were achieved by using data triangulation principle. The analysis used was Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The model used five variables, which were social capital (X1), society structure (X2), land using conflict (Y1), land management strategy (Y2), and land degradation (Y3). Perspective of social capital theory could be used to explain the interaction between society socio-cultural behaviors and land degradation of Tulis watershed. The model proved that society structure with effective social capital, low conflict in land using, and good land management strategy afforded to decrease land degradation of Tulis watershed.
