• Knowledge sharing behaviour and its predictors (2010, background): “Although motivation and expertise might account for individual participation in knowledge sharing (Wang and Lai, 2006) it is not always easy to predict when and why employees share their knowledge (Duguid, 2005).”
• The firm as an epistemic community: The knowledge based view revisited (2010, result): “However, in contrast to this vein of research which tended to emphasize the role of tacit knowledge (Delamont and Atkinson, 2001; Duguid, 2005), Holzner’s (1968) original discussion focused almost entirely on explicit knowledge expressed in symbolic form.”
• How do Data Science Workers Collaborate? Roles, Workflows, and Tools (2020, background): “These patterns suggest that the people in these roles may have different relationships with their own communities of practice [22, 98].”
• Transfers of tacit vs explicit knowledge and performance in international joint ventures: the role of age (2015, background): “In the second set of hypotheses, we examine how IJV age moderates the performance consequences of these two types of knowledge transfers (Duguid, 2005; Ryle, 1949).”
