“…When academics predict that they will receive extrinsic or intrinsic rewards for knowledge sharing, it resulted in a heightened positive attitude that causes a positive intention. Likewise, Islam and Afroze (2020) revealed attitude is an essential factor of KSB. The authors argued that a favorable attitude motivates people to share valuable knowledge.…”

Purpose Extant literature on knowledge sharing in higher education institutions (HEIs) concentrates on non-behavioral perspectives and indicates that academics continue to hoard knowledge despite being given incentives to bolster knowledge sharing behavior (KSB). This study aims to examine KSB among academics from a behavioral perspective through the lenses of the theory of planned behavior, perceived trust and organizational climate. Design/methodology/approach Self-administered questionnaires were distributed to 12 private universities using the drop-off/pick-up approach, resulting in 405 usable responses, which were analyzed using covariance-based structural equation modeling. Findings Academics’ salient beliefs – that is, behavioral beliefs, normative beliefs and control beliefs – significantly influence their attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control (PBC). Attitude, subjective norms, PBC, perceived trust and organizational climate directly influence knowledge sharing intention (KSI), whereas attitude, KSI, subjective norms and PBC directly influence KSB. Noteworthily, KSI is a mediator in the relationships between attitude, subjective norms and PBC with KSB. Originality/value This study makes a seminal contribution through the novel conceptualization and theoretical generalizability of the theory of planned behavior by which HEIs can reinforce their competitiveness and global position by enhancing KSB among academics using a profound behavioral strategy.

“…Studi oleh Kirchik et al (2012) menyatakan bahwa jumlah kutipan berhubungan dengan jumlah pembaca manuskrip tersebut, yang mana secara tidak langsung ditentukan oleh kualitas kontribusi ilmiah manuskrip. Peneliti mengutip sebuah karya selain untuk mengakui atau menghargai kontribusi orang lain, juga sebagai pengakuan bahwa manuskrip tersebut berguna bagi studi yang sedang mereka lakukan (Islam & Afroze, 2020). Manuskrip yang sering dikutip dianggap lebih berguna oleh peneliti dibandingkan manuskrip yang hampir tidak dikutip sama sekali.…”

Introduction. Library repositories are indispensable for academics during a pandemic. This study aims to analyze citation trends during a pandemic.Methodology. This study uses bibliometric methods to analyze metadata of publications on the Web of Science page. The samples collected were around 481 in the range of 2020-2022. Data were analyzed using Biblioshiny in R Studio.Results and discussion. The results found that the most citation trends were in journals with a medical scope. The journals with the most manuscripts are journals with a library scope. Meanwhile, the keywords with the most citations relate to the research methodology. Meanwhile, the number of citations during the pandemic is actually high, and even in journals with a medical scope, it can reach thousands every year.Conclusion. The citations related to repository publications in libraries are not only focused on journals with a library scope, but also focused on journals with non-libraries.

PurposeThe competition and competitive advantage among firms in various industries have shifted toward a knowledge-based economy. This is particularly evident in knowledge-intensive industries where a company’s competitive edge relies heavily on its ability to generate and utilize new knowledge solutions. Knowledge management (KM) is essential for all organizations, but it holds greater significance in specific functional units, such as maintenance. Industrial maintenance is a knowledge-intensive field and knowledge sharing (KS) motivation is low due to the tacit and intricate nature of knowledge. Despite these challenges, sharing knowledge between experienced and novice employees is fundamental to industrial maintenance, and much remains to be examined in this area. This study explores how novices' knowledge and KS with other workers can be improved via “Training by Novices” program in industrial maintenance.Design/methodology/approachThis study adopted an action-research approach within a high-tech company’s maintenance department, involving 103 maintenance employees. The research unfolded in three pivotal phases: first, an initial evaluation of KM and KS was carried out; second, training programs by novices aimed at strengthening KS between novices and department members were implemented and third, data were collected to assess changes and facilitate improvement in knowledge exchange and collaboration within the department.FindingsThe study demonstrates that involving novices in training programs as trainers within high-tech industries' maintenance departments enhances KM and KS among all employees. The training programs led to substantial increases in knowledge for novices and experienced workers and fostered a culture of continuous learning. Despite the short training duration, participants' overall knowledge increased, and they found the program effective and expressed willingness to continue, indicating potential for long-term improvements in KS practices.Research limitations/implicationsThis research challenges conventional wisdom regarding KS among novices in industrial maintenance. Showcasing the effectiveness of novices as trainers offers a fresh perspective on enhancing KS practices within knowledge-intensive industries.Practical implicationsThis study provides actionable insights for maintenance managers grappling with KS challenges. Organizations can boost employees' knowledge and KS practices by advocating for structured training programs led by novices, fostering a more collaborative workplace culture.Originality/valueThis study introduces a novel approach by empowering novices to engage actively in KS within industrial maintenance settings. By utilizing novices as trainers, the research demonstrates a practical means of enhancing both their own knowledge and that of their peers. This innovative strategy not only addresses common challenges in KM within maintenance units but also promotes a culture of continuous learning and development. This research offers valuable insights into improving KS practices and fostering a more collaborative organizational culture.
