The study of epistemological beliefs questionnaire Schumer (1992) and information seeking behavior questionnaire Wilson (2000) was used. Cronbach's alpha test, one-sample t, Pearson, simple linear regression and independent t were used by spss20. The results showed that epistemological beliefs of students in the average level (p=0.001, t=96.12); but information seeking behavior of students is lower than the average (p=0.001, t=69.92). The results showed that there was a significant relationship between information seeking behavior and epistemological beliefs. Also the regression results showed that epistemological beliefs of students of 20 percent ability to predict its information-seeking behavior. The results showed that between information seeking behavior of PhD and master's students there are significant differences, but there was disagreement about epistemological beliefs. Given the importance and role of epistemological beliefs in information seeking behavior, use of information seeking without considering the epistemological beliefs can not be clearly understood. This approach allows a comprehensive analysis and review in accordance with the facts cognitive-information will provide academic researchers, and as a result will help to improve and develop the information system.

The results showed that Organizational inertia has a significant direct effect on organizational dichotomy, Social wear and a shortage of employees. The results of mediation hypotheses showed that the indirect effect of organizational inertia on organizational hypocrisy with the role of social intermediation and lack of work is also significant, even in the case of the mediator route; there was also a shorter work of direct effect. According to research findings, it can be said Although organizational inertia itself can lead to negative organizational behaviors such as hypocrisy But if the mediator and intervening variables are not controlled This effect can be much more intense.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the mediating role of shared leadership in the relationship between organizational capacity and types of innovation in non-profit sports organizations. The research was a descriptive-correlation type that was conducted in the field. 320 questionnaires were purposefully distributed among the members of the sports boards of the northwestern provinces of the country, and at the end, 236 correct questionnaires were collected. The research tools included organizational capacity, organizational innovation and shared leadership questionnaires. MPlus software was used to analyze the research data with maximum likelihood estimation by strong standard error. The results showed that all dimensions of organizational capacity, except financial capacity, had a significant relationship with administrative innovation. In contrast, human capacity and planning capacity had no significant relationship with technical innovation. Also, a significant relationship was found between all dimensions of organizational capacity with shared leadership. But there was no significant relationship between financial capacity and shared leadership. shared leadership was also significantly related to both types of administrative innovation and technical innovation. The evaluation of the hypothesized indirect effects showed that shared leadership has a mediating effect on the relationship between organizational capacity and administrative and technical innovations. But the mediating effect of shared leadership on the relationship between financial capacity and administrative and technical innovation was not confirmed. This research highlighted that the distribution of leadership responsibilities and the participation of members in the organization's decisions increases the possibility of using organizational capacities to improve all types of innovation.
