Tiivistelmä:Research in organizational learning has demonstrated processes and occasionally performance implications of acquisition of declarative (know-what) and procedural (know-how) knowledge. However, considerably less attention has been paid to learned characteristics of relationships affecting the decision to seek information from other people. Based on a review of the social network, information processing, and organizational learning literatures, the paper proposes a formal model of information seeking in which the probability of seeking information from another person is a function of (1) knowing what that person knows; (2) valuing what that person knows; (3) being able to gain timely access to that person's thinking; and (4) perceiving that seeking information from that person would not be too costly. The results indicate strong support for the model and the mediation hypothesis.
