“…We used the seven‐item scale that Srivastava et al () produced by combining Faraj and Sproull's () four‐item knowledge sharing scale and Durham ()'s three‐item information sharing scale. Srivastava et al () have validated the combined seven‐item scale, and subsequent research (e.g., Kim, Kim, & Yun, ; Kim & Yun, ) has used the Srivastava et al () seven‐item scale to measure knowledge sharing. The items were “This employee shares his/her special knowledge and expertise with other employees,” “If this employee has some special knowledge about how to perform the task, he/she is likely to tell others about it,” “This employee exchanges information, knowledge, and sharing of skills with other employees,” “This employee freely provides others with hard‐to‐find knowledge or specialized skills,” “This employee helps others in developing relevant strategies,” “This employee shares a lot of information with other employees,” and “This employee offers lots of suggestions to other employees.” A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the seven items from the two scales indicated an acceptable level of fit for a one‐factor model ( χ 2 (12) = 31.47, p < .01; GFI = .95, CFI = .99, RMSEA = .10).…”
