This study conducted an analysis with qualitative indicators to determine whether Social Stories research for autism spectrum disorder(ASD) conducted in Korea with the single-subject research is consistent with evidence-based practice. For this purpose, journal articles from 2000 to 2019 were systematically searched via research databases, and a total of 23 studies were chosen based on criteria for this study. General research characteristics were analyzed by classifying them in four categories; subject characteristics, methodological characteristics, independent variables, and dependent variables. The degree of conformity with evidence-based practice was analyzed through a multi-step process based on the qualitative indicators presented by Reichow and colleagues (2008). The result of the analysis based on qualitative indicators of evidence-based practices found no studies corresponding to “Strong” levels of the rigor of research reports, 14 studies(60.9%) with “Adequate” levels, and 9 studies(39.1%) with “Weak” levels. These results of evaluation of research report regor can be assessed as “established evidence-based practies(E-EBP)”, which is the highest level of evidence-based practice. The discussion reviews factors that enhance the level of evidence-based practice in terms of the quality of Social Stories for ASD and suggests implications for future research.
