: The purpose of the present study is to philosophically explain of the user's cognitive abilities to interactive retrieve information based on abstraction of human paradigmatic. Methodology: This is a fundamental theoretical goal research using deductive qualitative content analysis, its interpretation and conclusions. The data collection tools were collected through the study of library documents and other sources in the databases of Mulla Sadra's exponents' content analysis. The validity and reliability of the present study is based on the reliability and validity of past research. The analysis of the information and knowledge gathered from the content of the documents is done in an explanatory-inferential interpretation. Finding: The commonalities of the three information behavior retrieval patterns, including Belkin, Ingwersen and Saracevic on the cognitive abilities based on abstraction of human paradigmatic of Mulla Sadra, the user can be regulated the knowledge status in Belkin episode of IR model and in Ingwesen cognitive model makes a difference in how users search and how their cognitive structures are influenced by information absorption; And also, in the Saracevic multilevel model, the levels (cognitive, motivational, and situational) have changed and caused more interaction, and in user interaction and response to the information system, it is possible to depict intermediates among levels and layers different aspects of vital. Conclusion: By explaining the cognitive abilities of the user in information interactive retrieval based on abstraction of human paradigmatic (Mulla Sadra), the three-way interactions of behavior, environment, and individuals are understood and lead to actions such as the search starting point and causing interpret and formulate a clear conceptualization of information behaviors including information behavior, information seeking behavior, information finding behavior, and information use behavior during the interaction of information behaviors as well as varying levels of accuracy and attention in the search process as well as diversity and the variety of information behaviors will be predictable and persistent. Finally, formulating effective strategies to advance information in information behaviors leads to the implementation and development of interactive information retrieval patterns.

AbstractObjective: Creating knowledge in the organization and transforming it depends on the skill and ability of the skilled manpower. The success of employee empowerment also depends on factors and obstacles. The present study seeks to empower librarians of Iran and Tehran University of Medical Sciences to create and transfer knowledge.methodologyThis research is one of the applied research that has been done by survey-correlation method. The study population consisted of two universities, Iran University of Medical Sciences with 76 librarians and Tehran University of Medical Sciences with 61 librarians, which totaled 137 librarians. According to Morgan's table, 104 people were selected. Data were collected randomly. Two standard questionnaires, Spritzer Empowerment (1995), and Newman & Conrad Knowledge Management (1999), were used for data collection. The Spritzer Questionnaire has five components (competence, affectivity, sense of meaning, choice, trust), and the Newman and Conrad model has four components (knowledge creation, knowledge retention, knowledge transfer and transfer, and knowledge utilization). In this study, two components of knowledge creation and knowledge transfer are considered. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis with Pearson (for normal explanatory data) and Spearman (for nominal qualitative data) tests. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software version 23, and the impact of empowerment factors on knowledge creation and transfer of community librarians' knowledge to the structural model of Amos software was used.FindingsThe findings of the present study indicate that there is a significant relationship between individual factors and knowledge creation. There is a significant relationship between gender and education with knowledge transfer. There is a significant relationship between group factors (sense of trust and sense of meaning) and knowledge creation and transfer. There was no significant relationship between group factors (competence, choice, and affectivity) and knowledge creation and transfer. As empowerment increases, knowledge creation and transfer among librarians increases, and empowerment decreases as knowledge creation and transfer among librarians decreases. Many factors affect empowerment, but according to the results of the present study, individual and group factors (gender, level of education, sense of trust, and meaningful feeling) had the greatest impact on empowering librarians to create and transfer knowledge.Results: Findings showed that there is a significant relationship between individual factors and knowledge creation. But there is no significant relationship between individual factors and knowledge transfer.Keywords: Empowerment success factors, Knowledge creation, Knowledge transfer, Librarians, University of medical sciences.
