Recently, it is found that besides face-to-face interactions, students also share their knowledge through online channels such as social software tools. This study aims to examine the relationship between social software characteristics and knowledge sharing behavior of students in Malaysian university context. The findings of the questionnaire survey with 307 students in five different universities revealed that informal setting, communication, network and community, and user-generated content characteristics of social software tools could positively influence students' knowledge sharing behavior. © 2013 IEEE. date: 2013 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84921809063&doi=10.1109%2fSCOReD.2013.7002558&partnerID=40&md5=d532fe251574e84712766f7e319ff06f id_number: 10.1109/SCOReD.2013.7002558 full_text_status: none publication: Proceeding - 2013 IEEE Student Conference on Research and Development, SCOReD 2013 pagerange: 133-138 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781479926565 citation: Dhanapal, D.D.P. and Kaeomanee, Y. and Rias, R.M.
