본 연구에서는 1989년부터 2010년 까지 22년 동안 국내에서 이루어진 ADHD의 지원에 관한 연구동향을 알아보기 위해 선정된 논문 총 366편을 분석하였다. 연구 결과 ADHD에 관한 연도별 연구 분포는 꾸준히 증가해 왔으며, 학술지별 연구 분포에서 「정서ㆍ행동장애연구」, 연구 분야에서는 사회분야, 지원유형에서는 교육지원, 연구유형에서는 조사연구, 연구 주제에서는 진단 및 평가가 가장 높은 빈도로 나타났다. 연구 대상 유형에서는 ADHD, 연구 대상 연령은 초등, 연구 대상자 수는 1~10명, 연구 대상자 성별비는 남자대 여자가 5.8:1, 진단 및 측정 도구는 전문의사, 자료 처리는 통계, 단일대상설계는 AB설계, 중재전략은 미술치료, 중재기간은 11~20회기가 가장 높은 빈도로 나타났다.
This research analyzed a total of the selected 366 treatises to take a look at the research trends on the support for ADHD which has been achieved for 22 years from 1989 until 2010 at home. As a research result, it was found that the distribution of research works on ADHD by year has been steadily increasing, and the breakdown of the research distribution and their frequently handled realm are as follows: First, "Journal of Emotion & Behavioral Disorders" appeared in highest frequency in research distribution by academic journal; social field did in research field; educational support did in the pattern of support; "research and study" did in the pattern of research; "diagnosis and assessment" showed in highest frequency in research subject. On the other hand, ADHD appeared in highest frequency in the pattern of research subject; age of research subject frequently stayed at elementary school age; number of research subjects was frequently from 1 to 10; the ratio of men to women was frequently 5.8:1; tools for diagnosis & measurement are frequently medical specialists; data processing was done frequently using statistics; plan for a single subject was frequently using AB design; mediatory strategy was frequently using art therapy, and mediatory periods frequently ranged from 11 sessions to 20 sessions.
