The purpose of this study is to examine the trend of dance therapy research while providing scholastic information for the future research. To the study, the researcher analyzed 43 research papers on dance therapy which are mainly domestic doctorate dissertation. The information was collected from internet research while retrieving in the Korean Studies Information. ‘Dance healing’ was main word for the internet research. The researcher aslo use keywords with trend of study on dance therapy and theme/object/method of study. The result of study is as follows: Dance therapy is being studied in the academic field at several domestic universities(23 universities). It is mainly studied in the departments of athletic area(47.8%) and health/medical area(27.9%). With respect to type of study, quantitative study(79.1%) is much more than qualitative study(13.9%) and integrated study(7.0%). With respect to tool of study, research by questionnaire(56.8%) is most prevalent. With respect to sample of study, general people(55.8%) is slightly higher than patients(44.2%). Collective sample(87.5%) and mental disease(47.4%) are most prevalent in the sample of patients. With respect to independent variables as the method of dance healing, DMT(41.9%), Korean traditional dance(18.6%) and other dance program(16.3%) occupy 76.8% of the entirety. Health (43.5%) is highest in the dependent variables as the object of dance healing, followed by disease(32.6%), physical strength(8.7%), physical composition(7.6%) and physiological function (7.6%). Related to the health, mental health (37.5%) is higher than physical health (6.5%) and in the disease, mental disease(28.3%) is higher than physical disease(4.3%). In the lower factors of mental disease, the 3 factors of depression(38.6%), stress(26.9%) and anxiety (23.1%) occupy 88.6% of the entirety.

Although this study was done for domestic doctorate of trend of study on dance therapy, the study should be extended to include master's degree or journals and study on the meta-regression analysis of dance therapy effect is necessary. The author intends to suggest that the development of dance therapy program and the study to develop questionnaire as tool of study is necessary as independent variable appearing in the result of this study.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the current state of studies related to perfectionism in the field of domestic dance and to discuss the direction of future research. The research was conducted by searching the academic search sites such as RISS and KISS, and a total of 69 studies on perfectionism were analyzed in terms of the publishing institution, publication year, research subjects, research methods, concept of perfectionism, variables related to research subject. Content analysis and frequency analysis were used as analysis methods, and the following results were obtained. First, theses and dissertations were conducted in 16 universities in total, and the journals were published in 17 journals. Second, the researches of perfectionism have been steadily studied since the 2000s. Third, Most of the studies conducted on the students of higher education courses majoring in dance. Fourth, Most of the studies were quantitative researches, so it seems necessary to carry out various research methods and research designs. Fifth, Most of the studies used the multidimensional concept of perfectionism and suggested the necessity of research on the development of scales for the domestic dance majors. Sixth, as a result of analyzing the trend of research based on the variables related to the theme, the most of independent variables were personality variables, the most of mediator variables were coping and moderating behavior variables, and the most of dependent variables were positive emotional variables. According to the results, research tasks were suggested an academic effort to try various research topics and subjects, research methods, and research designs by expanding the biased research area. It also implies that research should be activated through a creative approach and an in-depth understanding of the propensity of perfectionism.
