Abstract

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to analyze Korean qualitative research studies on cerebral palsy and provide a basis for future direction of research.
Methods : Twenty-six articles were selected by searching 4 Korean databases (NDSL, DBpia, KISS, and RISS) and reviewing the list of additional references. All the articles were analyzed and assessed using the Consolidated criteria for Reporting Qualitative research (COREQ).
Results : Seventeen qualitative studies and 9 mixed quantitative and qualitative studies were selected, and methodologies such as case study (42.3%), constant comparative method (23.1%) and phenomenology (23.1%) were used. The studies investigated the effects of interventions (38.5%), support programs (30.8%), and life experiences (26.9%). Among the participants, 50.0% were persons with disabilities only, 19.2% were parents only, and 30.8% were combination of persons with disabilities, parents, teachers, and therapists. The number of participants in most studies was 2-9 (57.7%). The COREQ evaluation of the selected articles revealed many shortcomings in the studies. Interview guidelines were used only in 26.9% of the studies. In particular, many articles did not describe in detail the characteristics of researchers and the relationship between researchers and the participants.
Conclusion : In future, various research methodologies and research checklists must be used to stimulate high-quality qualitative research with on cerebral palsy.
