自關係觀點學者引進了特定關係的知識分享概念後，組織間知識分享益發受到重視，並使得組織間特定關係的知識分享被視為是創造競爭優勢的策略利器。本研究探討供應鏈中買賣雙方間在不同的關係情境下之知識分享，我們具體闡述買賣雙方如何運用關係特定性的知識分享以促進知識分享績效，並進一步提出關係特定性的知識分享所應具有之內涵。另一方面，我們將組織無法控制的關係結構及任務相依度作為既定的前因，以探討其與組織間關係特定性的知識分享間之關係。實證結果顯示，組織在面臨不同的關係本質時，將透過關係特定性的知識分享達到不同的知識分享績效，此研究結果亦能作為學者與實務工作者在面對組織間知識分享議題時一項重要的參考指標。 Inter-organizational knowledge sharing has received increasing attention and been viewed as a strategic tactic ever since the relational view scholars introduced the new paradigm of relation-specific knowledge sharing. This study unravel the concept of buyer-supplier relationship specificity of knowledge sharing and propose two elements, namely interaction routines and relation-specific interpretation to embody this conduct. Furthermore, recognizing the uncontrollable nature of interfirm dependence structure and task interdependence, we take it as the given antecedent factor of relationship specificity of knowledge sharing and investigate into the interrelationships. We further provide empirical evidence that the leverage of relationship specificity of knowledge sharing would yield different knowledge sharing performance within divergent interfirm relationship settings as to offer academic researchers and practitioners important guidance on interfirm knowledge sharing.
