This study selects 224 individuals from Renmin University of China s Economy Forum. It employs exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to design measurement models and investigate the data. A structural equation model is developed to explore the mechanism that influences knowledge-sharing behaviour in academic virtual communities. Altruistic behaviour and community atmosphere clearly have positive effects on the willingness to share. A community atmosphere has clear positive effects on sharing behaviour. The willingness to share has clearly positive effects on sharing behaviour. Compared with other professions the impact of altruistic behaviour community atmosphere and self-efficacy on willingness to share and the impact of willingness to share on sharing behaviour are more evident for economic management professionals. Key words Virtual Communities Knowledge Sharing Altruistic Behaviour Self-Efficacy Community Atmosphere Cite this Article Xianyin Lee Boxu Yang Ting Yu and Zhonghua Liu.
