This paper aims to determine the impact of knowledge creation and sharing on use by librarians in federal universities in Nigeria. The study adopted the survey method of the correlation type, where 518 librarians were surveyed through a close-ended questionnaire, descriptive statistics, Pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficient and multiple regression were used to test the hypotheses. Findings indicate that significant relationships exist between knowledge creation and knowledge sharing (r=0.52), knowledge sharing and knowledge use (r=0.63) and knowledge creation and knowledge use (r=0.52), respectively. Knowledge created and shared by the librarians is used for better work performance. The paper adds value to the existing body of knowledge by proposing the need to understand the importance of knowledge creation and sharing as facilitators of knowledge use by librarians. This will, in turn, enhance service delivery to library patrons, thereby improving library patronage. This paper is limited to knowledge creation and sharing and its impact on knowledge use. Types of knowledge created and channels through which knowledge is shared are outside the focus of this article.

This study was conducted to identify the factors associated with weight control and nutritional knowledge of juvenile delinquents. The average heights of the subjects in this study were 172.20 cm (male) and 160.89 cm (female), and the average weights were 66.73 kg (male) and 58.42 kg (female), and the BMIs (Body Mass Index; $kg/m^2$) were 22.46 (male) and 22.54 (female). The results of this study revealed that 41.4% of the subjects were over weight or obese. In addition, there were significant differences in the BMI, satisfaction with body image and perception of body image observed between male and female subjects. Furthermore, female subjects were more experienced at weight control than male students (p<0.001). Additionally, overweight and obese individuals had more experience with weight control than subjects that were not overweight. Moreover, there were significant differences in the reason that subjects took weight control measured between male and female students. Specifically, female subjects practiced weight control due to their appearance (p<0.001). The order of methods by which male subjects attempted to control their weight was exercise>diet control>starvation and for girl student were diet control>starvation>excercise. The nutritional knowledge scores were higher for female subjects than for mele subjects. In addition, the nutritional knowledge scores increased as the BMI value increased and the $father^{\circ}{\emptyset}s$ educational level increased. These results of this study could be useful data to plan and develop nutritional education programs for juvenile delinquents.

Purpose: The purpose of this article was to describe feminism and to propose the integration of a feminist method into qualitative nursing methodology in order to expand the body of nursing knowledge. Method: The world view of feminism including philosophy, epistemology and methodology was outlined, and a feminist grounded theory and feminist ethnography were suggested as a way of strengthening nursing research methodology using literature review. Results: Four different philosophical perspectives of feminism, that is, liberal feminism, radical feminism, Marxist feminism, and social feminism were described. Also epistemological perspectives including feminist empiricism, feminist standpoint, and postmodem feminism, were explained and were related to the methodology and methods of feminism. To enhance the strengths of nursing research within the feminist perspectives, feminist grounded theory and feminist ethnography were exemplified in the paradigm of qualitative nursing research. Conclusion: This paper suggested that incorporation of feminist approaches within nursing is a valuable attempt to expand the body of nursing knowledge and to enhance the quality of nursing care services by rectifying male-oriented knowledge and by empowering women in the care of other people as well as themselves.

The endowed privilege to an established profession acts as an important motivation related to professionalization of occupations. The established profession enjoys cognitive, legal, and economic privilege. This study analyzes the professionalization process of interior design. Specifically, the study evaluates the suitability of the body of knowledge and professional ethos(i.e., protection of citizen's health, safety, and welfare), while analyzing the professionalization of interior design in the United States. The research aims at proposing a reference point for the professionalization of Korean interior design. Utilized data include research paper, court sentencing, and reports published by related professional organizations. The study concludes that 3E's are a means of professionalization of interior design, while separating interior design from interior decorating. In addition, there is no evidence to the protection of citizen's HSW. Rather, it increases service costs and restricts the job opportunities. When the public is not persuaded, the argument related to the necessity of license for the protecting citizen's HSW can be consumed as a mere rhetoric, concealing intentions for formulating a cartel. Thus, this study proposes that the professionalization of interior design may focus on the establishment of identity and body of knowledge, which are specific to interior design.

Plato and Aristotle examined what the true spirit of physical education is and what kind of relationship it is, from the perspective of dividing into two parts of the body and mind. And the relationship between human body and mind, knowledge and behavior. Plato and Aristotle examined the harmonious combination of body and mind and what is the desirable relationship setting. In Plato's soul and body in philosophical centered ideological aspect, human education center emphasizes poetry education, but physical education is recognized as essential education for human education. Plato's body contour emphasizes the harmony of soul and body, not the superiority of the body to the mind. In Plato's education room, physical education should be preceded and then mental education should be done. I thought that there could be no independent souls without bodies. It is not an independent entity but a unified entity. Because there is a body, there is a soul. There is a soul, so a body exists. Aristotle thought that the body was more important than Plato, and that the body should be preceded by the soul.

이 연구는 옹기장인들의 옹기제작기술을 전통지식이라는 관점에서 접근한 것으로 구체적인 옹기제작기술 속에 전통지식들이 어떻게 내재되어 있는지를 살핀 것이다. 특히 옹기제작 관련 전통지식들이 어떤 범주들로 구성되어 있으며 제작기술과의 관계에서 어떤 양상을 띠는가 하는 점들에 주목한다. 옹기제작 과정은 크게 재료의 준비, 기물의 성형, 소성 단계로 나누어지는데, 매 단계마다 고유한 전통지식들이 존재한다. 먼저 재료준비 단계에서는 각종 흙에 대한 지식들이 주를 이룬다. 흙의 색깔과 성질, 좋은 옹기흙의 지역 분포에 대한 정보, 옹기 제작에 적합한 것으로 흙을 재조정하는 기술 등이다. 그리고 두 번째의 기물 성형단계에서는 물레의 구조와 형태, 흙을 쌓아올리는 데 필요한 기술, 각종 도구를 사용하는 방법, 완성된 형태의 옹기를 건조하는 기술 등이 주를 이룬다. 마지막으로 소성 단계에서는 가마에 대한 지식과 가마 제작 기술, 가마 내 옹기를 쟁이는 기술, 화목에 대한 지식과 불 때는 기술, 불의 종류 등이 주를 이룬다. 이들 지식들은 각각 별개로 존재하지 않고 상호 밀접한 관련을 맺고 있다. 이는 어느 한 과정이 잘못되어도 완전한 옹기의 생산이 어려워지기 때문이다. 지식의 내용을 중심으로 볼 때 이들은 재질 색상 형태 분포양상 용융점 강도 물리적 성질 등과 같은 과학적 범주에 속하는 것들이 많다. 하지만 이들 지식들은 공식적 제도교육과정을 통해 얻은 것들이라기보다는 비공식적인 도제교육을 통한 오랜 경험속에서 터득한 것들이 대부분이다. 그리고 지식의 체계는 쉽게 드러나지 않는데, 주로 민속과학(ethnoscience)적 분류와 범주 속에서 이해될 수 있는 것들이 대부분이다. 이들 지식들은 유네스코 세계무형문화유산의 개념으로 보면 '자연 및 우주에 관한 지식'범주에 속한다. 이와는 달리 신체와 사용 도구, 그리고 제작하고자 하는 기물을 일체화시켜 내는 것으로 '신체기술(body techniques)'이라 부를 수 있는 것들도 있다. 이에 대해서는 옹기장인들 스스로도 설명하는 데 어려움을 가지며, 그들이 굳이 설명을 하더라도 해당분야에 대한 경험과 식견이 없는 한 이해가 쉽지 않다. 이러한 지식들은 습득 및 전승방식에 따라 구분해보면,'옹기 장인의 일반적 지식'과 '특정 옹기 장인만이 갖춘 고유한 지식'들로 구분할 수 있다. 그리고 지식이 갖는 축적된 시간의 깊이에 따라 '역사가 긴 지식'과 '최근에 만들어진 지식'등이 있을 수 있다. 옹기제작과정에서 드러난 옹기 장인들의 기술과 전통지식은 재료의 준비과정에서부터 최종 완성품이 만들어지기까지의 전 과정에서 수많은 범주와 층위의 기술들이 긴밀하게 연계되어 있다. 이러한 양상은 '기술의 사슬(techniques chain)'이라고 할 만하다. 이때의 기술은 반드시 자연과학적 범주의 기술(techniques)만을 의미하는 것은 아니며, 솜씨(skill)를 비롯하여 장인들 스스로도 의식하기 어려운 습관적 행위들까지를 포함하는 다양한 층위의 기술과 지식들이라고 할 수 있다.

This study was designed to examine weight control, nutritional knowledge, dietary attitudes and eating behaviors of 370 high school girls and to investigate if there were differences in these variables by weight control status. The weight control attempters (65.1%) had significantly higher body weight and BMI (p<0.001). The difference between desired and current body weight was -9.1 kg in the attempters, showing a significantly higher difference than the counterparts (p<0.001). The attempters also showed more interest toward weight control (p<0.001), but were less satisfied with their body size (p<0.001). Most of subjects (88.1%), especially in the attempters (96.7%) responded that they would try to control their weights in the future. The regular exerciser was 22.9% in the attempters while the percentage of the counterparts was 11.9% (p<0.05). The use of internet or television watching was not significantly different by weight control status. Subjects scored 15.8 out of 20 on a nutritional knowledge scale, which showed a moderate level of knowledge. The nutritional knowledge score was 15.7 for the attempters and 15.8 for the counterparts. None of the nutritional knowledge items reached statistical significance, although the percentages of correct answers regarding weight control or balanced meals were slightly lower in the attempters. The attempters showed more favorable eating attitudes than the counterparts (p<0.001), especially in the attitudes of applying nutritional knowledge to daily life (p<0.01), attitudes for modifying diets (p<0.01) and importance of having adequate meals (p<0.01). The eating behavior was moderate, with mean scores of 31.1 (possible score: 15 - 45). Subjects showed problems in eating a variety of foods, eating meals regularly, eating slowly, eating breakfast and consumption of some food groups (e.g., dairy foods, fruits). The attempters consumed seaweeds more frequently than the counterparts (p<0.05). Although there were not many significant differences by weight control status, this study suggested that nutrition education for adolescent girls should be planned to provide nutrition information regarding desirable weight control as well as modifying diets and eating behaviors.
