Uploaded by Mimi

Research analyzes the factor structure of the knowledge management process for public university lecturers in Bangkok. Data come from a sample of 650 lecturers in Government universities, using a five-point rating-scale questionnaire. Instrument reliability reaches 0.95 on Cronbach’s alpha. Exploratory factor analysis with orthogonal rotation (varimax) extracts ten components across 85 items, with factor loadings from 0.40 to 0.77 and total variance explained of 68.77%.

Abstract The objective of this research was to study the factor analysis of the knowledge management process for public university lecturers in Bangkok. The sample was 650 lecturers working in Government universities in Bangkok. The instrument used for data collection was 5 rating scales questionnaire eliciting data concerning knowledge management process of these university lecturers. The reliability of the instrument, calculated by Cronbach Alpha Coefficient is 0.95. The data analysis by using exploratory factor analysis by orthogonal rotation with the varimax method was used to extract factors. Findings: There was the knowledge management process of university lecturers ten components, described by 85 items. Loading factors ranged from .40 to .77 and they accounted for 68.77 percent of the total variance. The factors name were: (1) tacit knowledge acquisition; (2) discovery knowledge; (3) capture knowledge; (4) knowledge creating; (5) knowledge creation from research; (6) management knowledge storage; (7) knowledge storage and access; (8) knowledge sharing; (9) knowledge transfer and dissemination; and (10) learning.
