Abstract

It is believed that the interpersonal relationship network is composed of four networks: the consultation network, the emotional network, general trust, and special trust. Based on the research results related to social relations, four hypotheses are proposed, and a whole network questionnaire is developed. Network data of scientific research small groups in universities are collected accordingly. Centrality analysis, QAP regression analysis, etc. are carried out for the two selected small groups, and the analysis results support three of the hypotheses. The conclusions show that the consultation network, general trust, and special trust are significantly positively correlated with knowledge sharing, while the emotional network is negatively correlated with knowledge sharing; the higher the centrality of the consultation network, the general trust network, and the special trust network, the more conducive it is to knowledge sharing.
