Recently, social capital related issues have been paid much attention by several researchers (e.g. Leana Van Buren, 1999; Nahapiet Ghoshal, 1998; Tsai Ghoshal, 1998) Objectives and Design This study attempts to investigate the relationship between one’s social capital and tacit knowledge acquisition in the context of software project team. We adopt a multi-informants questionnaire approach in this study. Conceptual Background－Nature of Tacit Knowledge1 Based on Polanyi’s (1966) works, Nonaka (1994) categorized human knowledge into two types: explicit and tacit Koskinen et al. (2003) consider that tacit knowledge is embedded in human mind to the extent that the knowers are not fully aware of the knowledge they possesses Nevertheless, the tacit knowledge determines the behavior of the knower Conceptual Background－Nature of Tacit Knowledge2 Osterloh and Frey (2000) argue that tacit knowledge sharing can be only facilitated by intrinsic motivation, such as sociability and friendship. Nonaka (1994) also suggests that tacit knowledge is of personal quality and can be transferred through sharing metaphors or experiences during social interaction without substantial knowledge loss. The efficiency of tacit knowledge exchange is highly dependent on social networks within which actors are located (K?ser Miles, 2002). Conceptual BackgroundSocial capital1 We can conceptualize social capital as a set of resources derived from the social relationship among social actors (Nahapiet Ghoshal, 1998; Tsai Ghoshal, 1998). Nahapiet and Ghoshal (1998) suggest that social capital can be considered in terms of three clusters: the relational, the cognitive, and the structural dimension
