    The aim of this article is to examine theoretically and experimentally the discriminant validity between organizational socialization and organizational identification. As a part of the theoretical examination, the definitions, processes, and determining factors were compared. As a result, it was found that the subjects, constitutions, determining factors, and so on, between them were different. Thus it was hypothesized that these two concepts were significantly different. In addition to the theoretical examination, building on three subhypotheses, namely the hypotheses taking into account environmental factors, age, and tenure, experimental examinations were conducted using confirmatory factor analysis. However, the data from this did not provide conclusive evidence that these two concepts were different. Therefore, as a consequence of the analyses, it was difficult to argue that organizational socialization and organizational identification were discriminated.

    This paper seeks to identify the influence which positive action measures have on young female employees' career-related self-efficacy, focusing on the occurrence of their life events such as marriage and childbirth using Japanese female employee-firm matched data. We classify positive action measures into childcare leave, the loosening of restraint and career development. We also divide careerrelated self-efficacy into career continuance efficacy, promotion efficacy and membership efficacy. We find the following facts. First, while childcare leave heightens career continuance efficacy, the loosening of restraint heightens not only career continuance efficacy but also membership efficacy. Second, the interaction of the loosening of restraint and career development has positive influence on career continuance efficacy. Meanwhile, the interaction of childcare leave and career development has negative influence on career continuance efficacy. These findings show childcare leave does not always lead to their retention and promotion. Therefore this paper suggests the need of both the loosening of restraint and career development for future positive action.

    This study focuses on the expertise and experiential learning, especially learning in communities of practice, of flight procedure designers (specialists who design air routes for aircraft). Six experts were interviewed and an analysis using Modified Grounded Theory Approach was conducted. The results indicated that an informal secondary community, formed through activities in a formally established original community, plays an important role in learning for an individual. The secondary community and the original community play complementary roles, exchanging one's inherent information and knowledge with that of the other. Based on these findings, the theoretical and practical significance of such secondary communities was examined. Further consideration was made of environmental factors that would activate a secondary community.
