Purpose: This study was to examine the relationships between knowledge about osteoporosis and cognitive factors in middle-aged women. Method: The subjects were 293 middle-aged women. Data collection was performed by using a questionnaire that included an Osteoporosis Knowledge Test, Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy Scale and Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale developed by Kim, Horan & Gendler(1991). Data was analyzed using the SPSS Win 10.0 program for descriptive statistics, and the Pearson correlation coefficient. Result: The mean osteoporosis knowledge was 14.0. The subscale means of osteoporosis health belief variables were: susceptibility 15.9, seriousness 17.2, benefits of exercise 22.9, benefits of calcium 21.4, barriers to exercise 20.9, barriers to calcium 22.5, and health motivation 18.6. The mean osteoporosis self-efficacy was 39.3 with a moderate score. There were significantly positive correlations among knowledge about osteoporosis, health belief, and self-efficacy about osteoporosis. Conclusion: Osteoporosis knowledge, health belief, and osteoporosis self-efficacy are related. Therefore, knowledge through education is an important factor in behavioral changes and it contributes to increase the health belief and self-efficacy of osteoporosis.

This paper delineates dynamic capabilities, which can be measured by internal capability and external knowledge, and also, in the shape of dynamic capabilities, bases on that corporate actions are expatiated by fitness and rent of evolutionary perspective. To achieve the goal of this study, classifying types of Nano-technology enterprise and suggesting analytical pattern based on dynamic capabilities, this thesis substantially analyzes how to categorize a type of enterprise and gauge a result through a survey of 359 domestic companies producing goods concerned with Nano-technology. This paper analyzes whether or not the internal capability and external knowledge affect the outcome of a certain enterprise. Moreover, in according to the results of practical analysis, it deducts 2 new variables by applying principal component analysis on four previous variables showing the internal capability and external knowledge. By classifying four types of enterprises with criterion of these two factors based on a relative extent and comparing each typical financial result, this paper suggests that the companies with relatively higher level of the internal capability and external knowledge surpass the lower ones at the financial outcome. Not only this, but also the technology-level analysis shows the same result, the higher capability and knowledge the higher performance. However, the analysis based on the difference of the four types of financial outcomes reveals that technological and evolutionary fitness can determine financial achievement.

To increase their market shares and grow continuously, it is very important for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to expand their markets. Although various factors may influence an SME's effort to cultivate a new market, this research focused on activities related to the search and utilization of external knowledge. After conducting Tobit analysis based on the dataset of 959 Korean SMEs included in the 2010 Korean Innovation Survey, we found that external knowledge search and utilization activities positively affect the market expansion of SMEs. This result has two implications: (1) SMEs should actively search for appropriate external knowledge sources with which they can expand their markets and reduce their dependence on internal R&D activities; and (2) they should implement an efficient corporate system to effectively absorb and utilize external knowledge inside the firms. Despite these contributions, this research has its shortcoming in that it utilized a cross-sectional dataset, which can be further analyzed by incorporating the dataset from previous and future periods.
