This paper analyses the effects of knowledge sharing and relational commitmentbetween international joint venture(IJV) partners on reverse knowledge transfer capability. And more specifically, we consider knowledge creation capability as a mediator whicharbitrate on the relationship between independent variables(knowledge sharing andrelational commitment) and dependent variable(reverse knowledge transfer capability). Based on the 98 survey from IJV in Korea, the empirical results are as follows. First,knowledge sharing and relational commitment between partners positively effect onthe knowledge creation capability. Secondly, there is a full-mediation effect of knowledgecreation capability on the relationship between independent variables(knowledge sharingand relational commitment) and reverse knowledge transfer capability. In conclusion,the higher the level of knowledge sharing and relational commitment between the IJVpartners, the more the knowledge creation capability will increase. And it is found outthat the reverse knowledge transfer capability will grow more through the knowledgecreation capability. These results suggest that; by testing and proving a new knowledgein the field, it motivates a headquarter to apply the knowledge into herself.
