A one-way ANOVA was used for this purpose.Result in Table 5 shows that there is a significant difference between knowledge sharingbehaviour of faculty members with different teaching experience (p-value 0.027>0.05).Table 5: ANOVA AnalysisSum of Squares df Mean Square F Sig.Between Groups 6.910 4 1.727 2.876 .027Within Groups 52.849 88 .601Total 59.759 92Using Duncan's range test has helped to show that the group of faculty members withspecific experience indicated higher knowledge sharing behaviour. No significantdifference was observed within groups but significant difference was indicated betweengroups with regard to knowledge sharing (Table 6). The results show that faculty memberswith more than 20 years experience and those with less than 5 years experience (group 2)reflect higher degree of knowledge sharing behaviour.Table 6: Duncan's Range TestTeaching experience(in years)NSubset for alpha = .051 216-20 17 1.78935-10 27 1.882611-15 16 1.8858More than 20 14 2.3168Less than 5 19 2.4836Sig. .067 .524Page | 8
