Nutrition labels were indicated only in 14.9% of 222 processed snack foods. At purchasing foods the students considered taste most importantly and in turn price, quantity, and nutrition. Of the subjects 79.4% of students and 89.2% of parents had experiences of reading nutrition labels, and the reasons were mainly to just know contained nutrients(76.8%, 72.1%, respectively) and for their health care(35.9%, 47.8%, respectively). The main reason not to confirm nutrition labels was that they were not interested in nutrition labels. But too small size and rudeness or hardness of understanding was also pointed out as a reason of not reading nutrition labels. The students ranked mineral, protein, and carbohydrate as the most important three nutrients at labelings, while the parents ranked protein, mineral, and calorie. Cholesterol, dietary fibers, and sodium were shown the lowest rank in both students and parents. Significant nutrients for specific processed foods did not well recognised in the students. Conclusively, nutrition labelings should be applied to all processed foods which students frequently buy, particularly in clear and large size.

This study assumes that recognition about scientific creativity may differ according to teacher, students and parents, and that this difference can affect the actual teaching, encouragement, and development of scientific creativity. Based on teacher's free responses and literature reviews about features of scientific creativity, we extracted 16 items describing contrary views about scientific creativity. Using these 16 items, we obtain responses from 652 students, teachers, soon-to-be-teachers (college of education students) and parents about whether they agree with each item or not. Results show that 1/4 of the participants agreed with the views contrary to the views accepted in literature. And we found out which views contrary to the accepted views in literature were agreed upon by participants, and that which items divided the groups for having contrary views. From these results, we discuss the possible effects of participants' recognition on teaching, encouragement and development of scientific creativity, and suggest so further studies.
