The objective of this study was to realize research demands by gathering the research agenda from the Korean Dental Hygienists Association andaffiliated groups through a Delphi survey. The study subjects were the heads of eight groups. The Delphi survey was conducted by e-mail after aresearcher explained the objective of the study to the heads. The research agenda was classified according to the Korean dental hygiene academicclassification and the National Dental Hygiene Research Agenda classification. To compare the number of research agendas according toclassification among the groups, we conducted a chi-squared test by using IBM SPSS 20.0. In total, 316 agendas were submitted. According tothe Korean dental hygiene academic classification, there was a significant difference among the groups, and the agendas associated with clinicaldental hygiene (36.7%) were the best. According to the National Dental Hygiene Research Agenda classification, there was no significant differenceand the agendas associated with health promotion and disease prevention (27.8%) were the best. In conclusion, the Korean Dental HygienistsAssociation and affiliated groups demanded similar research agendas, corresponding to the purpose of each establishment. However, the groupsdid not seem to show unique characteristics according to the purpose of each establishment. In other words, the groups should corroborate suchcharacteristics and suggest a corresponding agenda to establish specific areas of research in dental hygiene. Also, dental hygiene researchersshould mark the academic classification of the studies they want to submit.
