Abstract:

This article first reviews the socio-economic context in which documenting knowledge uptake and use by non-traditional stakeholders is becoming increasingly important. It then summarizes the creation and initial administration of a new questionnaire called the Level Of Knowledge Use Survey (LOKUS) instrument, a web-based tool designed to survey the level of knowledge use by these stakeholders. The article concludes by discussing the value of the LOKUS instrument for measuring change in knowledge use over time.
