The phenomenon of interest in this study, and thus the dependent variable, is knowledge sharing behavior (KSB) in organizations. This study seeks to answer the overarching research question:
- What are the factors that influence knowledge sharing behavior directly and indirectly through interpersonal trust?
This general research question may be elaborated in a number of more specific questions:
- Are there significant relationships between the identified social-cognitive variables and knowledge sharing behavior?
- Does interpersonal trust act as a mediating variable between the social-cognitive variables and knowledge sharing behavior?
- What is the relative influence of the identified social-cognitive variables and trust on knowledge sharing behavior?
