Abstract
Objective : This study aimed to understand the current study conditions and trends of Korean occupational therapy for children regarding the International Classification of Functioning(ICF) of disability and health.

Methods : This research selected 115 studies in the field of occupational therapy for children reported in the Journal of Korean Society of Occupational Therapy, and conducted an analysis on the classification of study type and evidence level to understand the trends. In addition, the number, age, diagnoses, and evaluation tools of the study subjects were analyzed. Moreover, this research categorized the studies based on the ICF-CY standard.

Results : The analysis outcomes of the articles published in the Journal of Korean Society of Occupational Therapy were as follows: (1) Correlation studies and group comparisons were the largest study type at 24.3%. (2) Level ¥³ was the largest evidence level at 44.3%. (3) The articles using school-age children as the subjects was the largest at 41.5%, and articles with more than 101 subjects made up the greatest number. Among the diagnoses, cerebral palsy was the largest at 26.0%, and a sensory profile was the most common evaluation tool at 11.6%. As for the study field categorized by ICF, the physical structure and functional factor were the largest at 51.2%.

Conclusion : This study reviewed articles on occupational therapy for children published in the Journal of Korean Society of Occupational Therapy to understand the trends in Korean occupational therapy for children. It verified the lack of themes regarding individual factors, and the participation factors of the occupational therapy field for children, and the results indicate a need for diversity in the selection of study themes.
