A Model of Collaborative Knowledge Building (2006, background): “Martin Heidegger (Heidegger, 1927/1996) (an important recent German philosopher) and Donald Schön (1983) (an influential American theoretician of design) argue that learning starts on the basis of tacit pre-understanding (Polanyi, 1962; Stahl, 1993a; Winograd & Flores, 1986).”
How dynamic can organizational capabilities be? Towards a dual-process model of capability dynamization (2007, background): “At the same time, embedding organizational capabilities in practicing or doing means that capability represents more than explicit knowledge; it covers more dimensions of an action: emotions, tacit knowing, and bodily knowledge (Polanyi, 1958, 1966).”
Advancing the Human Capital Perspective on Value Creation by Joining Capabilities and Governance Approaches (2015, background): “…(Agarwal, Croson, & Mahoney, 2010; Malmgren, 1961) and for diligent qualitative coordination among holders of specialized, tacit, and distributed knowledge (Polanyi, 1962; Tsoukas, 1996), in which managerial attention (Ocasio, 1997) and organizational identity also matter (Kogut & Zander, 1996).”
SME internationalization beyond exporting: A knowledge-based perspective across managers and advisers (2018, background): “Strong elements of tacitness are en capsulated in situational practical knowledge from the advisers’ standpoint (Polanyi, 1975).”
Blind in one eye: How psychological ownership of ideas affects the types of suggestions people adopt (2012, background): “(2001, 2003) suggested that psychological ownership is rooted, at least partly, in three human motives: (1) self efficacy and effectance (White, 1959), (2) self-identity (Dittmar, 1992; Mead, 1934), and (3) having a place in which to dwell (home; Heidegger, 1967; Polanyi, 1962).”
DEVELOPMENT, EVALUATION, AND VALIDATION OF A PAPER-AND-PENCIL TEST FOR MEASURING TWO COMPONENTS OF BIOLOGY TEACHERS’ PEDAGOGICAL CONTENT KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING THE “CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM” (2013, background): “Declarative PCK is factual knowledge that can easily be expressed in sentences or indicative propositions (Anderson, 1981; Polanyi, 1958).”
Loving and knowing: reflections for an engaged epistemology (2019, methodology): “I am contrasting this with kinds of thinking such as those described by Gendlin (1962/1997), Bruner (1979), Polanyi (1958), Dreyfus (1992), and others.”
History of Mathematics in Mathematics Education: a Saussurean Perspective (2008, neutral): “What is altered is a kind of background sense of the mathematical subjects we are teaching; the human origin of mathematical ideas, which the serious study of history brings out supremely, becomes subsidiary, to use Polanyi’s term (Polanyi, 1958), to the study of the usual topics.”
Peripheral Vision (2005, neutral): “2 See Michael Polanyi’s Personal Knowledge (Polanyi 1958).”
A Dialogical Approach to the Creation of New Knowledge in Organizations (2009, methodology): “To use Polanyi's terminology, practitioners necessarily rely on a subsidiary (tacit) awareness of the background for focally attending to the particular tasks they engage in (Polanyi and Prosch 1975, pp. 37–38; Polanyi 1962, p. 56).”
Doing More with Less: Innovation Input and Output in Family Firms (2016, positive): “In particular, family and founder CEOs are endowed with superior knowledge, particularly tacit knowledge (Nonaka & Takeuchi, 1995; Polanyi, 1973; Von Krogh, Ichijo, & Nonaka, 2000), about their firm ’ s members, routines, and stakeholders, which external CEOs possess to a lesser degree.”
Indeterminacy in the use of preset criteria for assessment and grading (2009, neutral): “Tacit knowledge as a concept was introduced and given philosophical substance by Polanyi (1962) in his classic work on the topic.”
Examining the Penrose effect in an international business context: the dynamics of Japanese firm growth in US industries (2005, background): “In the next section, we develop the theory and hypotheses.”
Formal and informal interorganizational learning within strategic alliances (2008, background): “Such knowledge, just like any other type of knowledge, is likely to have both an explicit and a tacit component (Polanyi, 1962).”
From copying to learning: using exemplars to engage students with assessment criteria and feedback (2011, background): “Used in this way, exemplars can convey to students the tutor’s tacit knowledge about what criteria actually mean (Polanyi 1973).”
