Abstract—This paper discusses the concept of self-efficacy as
a factor that can moderates knowledge sharing among
academics in public universities in Malaysia. The partial results

to determine the level of knowledge sharing awareness and to
identify whether the approach is associated with demographic
factors (designation, gender, working experience and academic
field). Participant included 725 academics from 20 public
universities. The level of awareness to share knowledge was at
moderate level. The One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
revealed that there were significant differences on the
knowledge sharing awareness across designation, working
experience and academic field. Significance was not seen
between knowledge sharing awareness on gender.
