The authors abstracted the problem through teaching practice called Planning your Life Course. It showed that students, who had a lower concern about their own life, might have difficulty in finding interest in Home Economics class. Boys especially had such a tendency to be that way. Then, the authors investigated the relationship between identity and achievement motive, results were tabulated from responses gained from questionnaires given to 435 1^<st> and 2^<nd> grade students, aimed to study about students' concerns in life and their motivation to study in class. The result were summarized as follows. (1)Identity development was related to the self-fulfilmentive achievement motive. (2)There was a difference between males and females. Males had a high level of competitive achievement motive, on the other hand, females had a high level of self-fulfilmentive achievement motive. The authors propose that it is necessary that self-fulfilmentive achievement motive is focused upon in Home Economics Education. Teachers should make Home Economics classes considering the difference in the achievement motive between males and females.
