In the literature, it is pointed that distributive justice explains pay satisfaction and job satisfaction better than procedural justice, and procedural justice explains organizational commitment and researcher's evaluation about the supervisor better than distributive justice. We empirically tested if these findings are valid in R＆D institutes with the data collected from Korean R＆D professionals. It is found that the relations between the justices and the outcome variables are more complicated. The result of the analysis shows that distributive justice is also significantly related to organizational commitment, but not to job satisfaction, and procedural justice is also significantly related to pay satisfaction, and job satisfaction. Implications of the findings and possible influence of the R＆D setting are discussed.

This study validated the moderating effect of education program on cooking institutes. Also the present study revealed cause and effect relationship among the education environment, the satisfaction and reregistration intentions by conducting a survey for trainees in cooking institutes located in Busan and Gyeongnam area. For the purposes of the study, conjunction and organic cause-and-effect relationship of entire model was validated by using an exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling with 313 trainees who have used cooking institutes. A nested model and basic model were established to analyze the moderating effect of education program. The adjustment role of education program was validated with ${\chi}^2$ difference considering the degree of freedom between two models. As results of the analysis, the education service was statistically significant in all factors except the effect on education satisfaction. The education program has moderating effect on the relationship between the level of instructor and satisfaction degree, and between satisfaction degree and the reregistration intentions.
