The purpose of this article is to analyze the evolution of research on knowledge-hiding, as we consider that this situation may be occurring more frequently than expected knowledge sharing in research organizations.
The study identified that research has been migrating from Canada, the Netherlands and Norway (2012-2013) to Asian countries such as China, India and Pakistan in recent years (2018-2022). This evolution of understanding about hiding knowledge includes: the concept of "Knowledge Management" (2018); the relationship with "knowledge sharing" (2019); the analysis of factors within the hiding knowledge construct such as: "emotional exhaustion", "organization identification", "distrust in supervisor" (2020); "relational climate", "competitive working environment", "working place bulling", "awareness" (2021); and "evasive knowledge hiding", "creativity", "diversity" (2022) among the most common terms used for the investigation of why knowledge is hidden in organizations.
