Victoria--
You ask:
Does this mean that
identification necessitate affect, such as positive motivation and personal
interest bordering even fun and amusement, thus crossing into comfortable
zone. The consequence is a postive identity within such community of
practice?

I am not sure that positive motivatin and interest bordering on fun
and amusement have positive identity in a COP as a necessary consequence,
but they sure do help.
