چکیده

با توجه به اهمیت تبادل دانش به ­عنوان مهم‌ترین عامل در فرایند تولید علم، در این پژوهش دیدگاه اعضای هیئت علمی رشته علم اطلاعات و دانش‌شناسی دانشگاه‌های دولتی شهر تهران بررسی شد تا رابطه بین این دو متغیر مشخص شود. این پژوهش مطالعه‌ای کاربردی و از نوع توصیفی - همبستگی بود و جامعه آماری 48 نفر از اعضای هیئت علمی رشته علم اطلاعات و دانش‌شناسی دانشگاه‌های دولتی شهر تهران در سال 1398 بودند. ابزار گردآوری اطلاعات شامل دو پرسشنامه محقق‌ساخته «تبادل دانش» با 23 گزاره و در 5 بُعد و پرسشنامه «تولید علم» با 15 گزاره بود. سنجش پایایی همسانی درونی میان گویه‌های پرسشنامه‌ها با روش آلفای کرونباخ به ترتیب 859/0 و 854/0 به ­دست آمد. برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها از بسته نرم­افزاریSPSS  نسخه 23 استفاده شد. نتایج نشان داد که بین تبادل دانش و تولید علم از دیدگاه اعضای هیئت علمی رشته علم اطلاعات و دانش‌شناسی دانشگاه‌های دولتی شهر تهران رابطه‌ و همبستگی مثبت و معنادار وجود دارد (001/0p<). همچنین بین تولید علم و ابعاد تسریع در پژوهش، تسهیل در استفاده از دانش، کاهش موانع در پژوهش، شفاف­ سازی دانش به ­دست آمده و گسترش پژوهش نیز ارتباط قوی و معنا‌دار وجود داشت (001/0p<). آزمون رگرسیون نیز تأثیر تبادل دانش بر تولید علم را نشان داد. نتایج به ­دست آمده همچنین نشان داد که موفقیت فرایند تولید علم در به ­کارگیری تبادل دانش و گسترش تولیدات علمی مستلزم استفاده از ابزارها، روش‌ها، برنامه‌ریزی مناسب و تعاملات علمی است.

چکیده [English]

Considering the importance of knowledge sharing as the most important factor in the science production process, this study investigated the relationship between these two variables from viewpoints of faculty members of Knowledge and Information Science at public universities in Tehran.  This study was an applied and descriptive-correlation study. The statistical population consisted of 48 faculty members of Knowledge and Information Science of Tehran's public universities in 2019. Data gathering tools were two researcher-made questionnaires included: “knowledge sharing” with 23 questions in 5 dimensions and “science production” with 15 questions. Cronbach's alpha method was used to measure the internal consistency reliability of the items that was 0.873 for “Knowledge Sharing Questionnaire”, and 0.854 for “Science Production Questionnaire". SPSS software version 23 was used for data analysis. The results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship among “knowledge sharing” and “science production” (p<0.001). Also, there was a strong and significant relationship between "production of science" and dimensions of “research” acceleration, “facilitating the use of knowledge” research barriers reduction”, “clarification of knowledge gained” and “research development” (p<0.001). Linear regression analysis also showed the effect of knowledge sharing on the science production. The results of this study showed that the success of the science production process is in applying knowledge sharing, and the development of scientific productions requires the use of tools, methods, suitable planning and scientific interactions.
