Abstract

People have recognized that the vast majority of the human beings’ knowledge (accounting for 90% of the total amount of knowledge) is tacit knowledge that it is difficult to express, difficult to code, in addition to the explicit knowledge which can be expressed and encoded, since Polanyi proposed and constructed “tacit knowledge” theory. As a result, the measurement of tacit knowledge has become one of the key objects in the research of knowledge management. The related achievement from different countries’ scholars during the past 30 years will become an important asset for further research in the field, since Sternberg R.J., a famous American psychologist, initially discussed the measurement of tacit knowledge in 1987.
