Abstract

Abstract This study aims to determine engineering students’ behavior towards Knowledge Sharing (KS). Researchers also investigated the effect of technological and organizational factors on students’ behavior towards KS. Another purpose of this paper was to identify the difference among different universities’ students regarding their KSB. The authors conducted this study using quantitative methodology. The population of the study was engineering students admitted in 10 Pakistani universities based in different Pakistani provinces and capital. Results confirmed that the majority of Pakistani engineering students were sharing knowledge with their fellows with good frequency. It was also found that students of different universities differed significantly regarding their KSB. However, factors related with technology and organization did not influence (significantly) KSB of engineering students of Pakistan. Results might facilitate students and organizations, especially related to the field of education in understanding the role of technological and organizational related factors towards students’ KSB.

技术和组织因素对巴基斯坦学生知识共享行为的影响研究

摘要本研究旨在确定工科学生的知识共享行为。研究人员还调查了技术和组织因素对学生KS行为的影响。本文的另一个目的是确定不同大学学生在KSB方面的差异。作者采用定量方法进行了这项研究。这项研究的对象是来自巴基斯坦不同省份和首都的10所大学的工程系学生。研究结果证实，大多数巴基斯坦工程系学生都在以良好的频率与同伴分享知识。研究还发现，不同大学的学生在KSB方面存在显著差异。然而，与技术和组织相关的因素并没有（显著）影响巴基斯坦工科学生的KSB。研究结果可能有助于学生和组织，特别是与教育领域相关的学生和组织理解技术和组织相关因素对学生KSB的作用。
