Abstract

In this paper we test the influence of formal knowledge management practices on knowledge sharing behavior of teachers, as well as influence of teachers’ motivation to share and their ability to share. The quantitative data from 117 questionnaires is used in structural equation modeling analysis, where we identify the direct positive effect of knowledge management practices and autonomous motivation on knowledge sharing, and no effect of controlled motivation and ability to share knowledge on the behavior in question.
