 abstract = {Online Communities of Practice offer their members the ability to communicate about a topic of interest in a way that transcends the limitations of geography. However, many communities of practice fail due to a lack of community commitment. This research examines the types of commitments that group members make to a community and what factors influence members to make a commitment to the community. A community commitment survey was distributed to online communities of practice. The results suggest that members make continuance (need-based), affective (emotion-based) and normative (obligation-based) commitments to the online communities of practice. Usefulness and system reliability lead members to make a continuance commitment. Social interaction and identification encourage members to make an affective commitment. Positive social influence and altruism influence members to make a normative commitment. The implications of this research for practitioners are discussed.},
