Abstract
This study explored the degree to which patents are representative of the knowledge application spilling over of the university during 2002-2006, by focusing on the departments of electronic engineering in Taiwan, including 16 national universities, 12 private universities, 6 national colleges and 3 private colleges. And the number of papers published in 2002-2006 was choosen as a measure of knowledge creation. rawing on quantitative data, this study implemented linear regression analysis that examining relationship between learning research resource, knowledge creation and knowledge creation. Then hierarchical moderator regression analyses were used to test the interactions of individual knowledge stock and environmental characteristics with knowledge creation. ccording to the regression results, research resources have direct impact on the knowledge creation: faculty members that have greater research resources performed better in knowledge creation than faculty members that have fewer. And individual background and organizational scale have moderating effect on the relationship between two. his study focused on the relationship between knowledge creation and application. Based on our analysis, this relationship is inverse U-shaped. It indicates that an optimal level of knowledge creation for knowledge application exists. The present evidences imply that faculty members should realize that too many or too few publication can neither help knowledge applied.
