社会交换理论视角下网络学习空间知识共享行为研究

Knowledge sharing behavior in online learning spaces: a social exchange theory perspective

网络学习空间应用的目的是促进学习网络的形成,实现个性化学习。网络学习空间中的知识共享是学习者之间互惠并获得共同发展的过程,其实质是一种社会交换过程,从社会交换理论的视角分析网络学习空间中的知识共享具有重要意义。本研究从社会交换理论的视角,提出网络学习空间知识共享影响因素模型和研究假设,采用问卷调查法对研究模型和研究假设进行验证。对调查问卷的信度和效度分析表明,测量模型的拟合程度较好。研究结果表明,学习者的自我价值感、得到尊重和获得社会支持对其知识共享行为具有积极正向影响;受到关注对知识共享行为的影响不显著;学习者感知的完成任务代价和认知代价对其知识共享行为具有阻碍作用。

The purpose of online learning spaces is to form learning networks and facilitate personalized learning.Knowledge sharing behavior in online learning spaces is in its essence a social exchange process whereby learners help each other and progress together.This study first put forward a research model and research hypotheses of knowledge sharing behavior in online learning spaces from a social exchange theory perspective.It then tested the research model and research hypothesis via questionnaire survey.Analysis of reliability and validity of the questionnaire demonstrates high degree of goodness of fit of the measuring model.The results show that sense of self-worth,respect from others and social support have positive impact on knowledge sharing behavior,while being noticed has no significant impact.It is also found that perceived executional costs and cognitive costs hinder knowledge sharing behavior in online learning spaces.Suggestions for improving knowledge sharing behavior in online learning spaces are discussed and limitations of the study identified.
