Effects of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation on employee knowledge sharing intentions

Hsiu-Fen Lin
Department of Shipping and Transportation Management, National Taiwan Ocean University, Taiwan, R.O.C.

Received 1 December 2005 Revised 30 March 2006 Abstract.
Numerous scholars and practitioners claim that motivational factors can facilitate successful knowledge sharing. However, little empirical research has been conducted examining the different kinds of motivation (extrinsic and intrinsic) used to explain employee knowledge sharing behaviors. By integrating a motivational perspective into the theory of reasoned action (TRA), this study examines the role of both extrinsic (expected organizational rewards and reciprocal benefits) and intrinsic (knowledge self-efficacy and enjoyment in helping others) motivators in explaining employee knowledge sharing intentions. Based on a survey of 172 employees from 50 large organizations

    The authors used one well-developed, coherent, unified and concise paragraph understandable to a wide audience. The objectives and focus of the article were clearly stated and agreed with the title. The authors introduced the methods of accomplishing the task in general, without any specifications. The abstract was written in accordance with “Descriptive abstract qualities” (Driscoll, 2013), but the information provided in it didn’t follow the organization of the report itself.
