Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate factors that influence knowledge sharing. Based on the Social Cognitive Theory, we developed a research model in which altruism and self efficacy had influence on knowledge sharing. In addition, drawing from previous studies, another construct i.e., trust was added to the research model. One hundred and twenty five questionnaires were distributed to administrators in one public university in Malaysia. Multiple regression was used to analyze the data. Findings of the study indicate that altruism and trust has an influence on individuals' behaviour to share knowledge. However, surprisingly self efficacy effect on knowledge sharing was not supported. Practical implications of these results were discusse
