Abstract
Objective : The purpose of this article is to study the effectiveness of a group occupational therapy for children via systematic review, and to provide clinical evidences. Methods : The systematic review initially included articles in Pubmed, Ovid, RISS, KISS, and DBpia, published until 2014. Total 14 articles have been chosen, using different keyword of each domestic/foreign studies. Selected articles were divided depending on the level of evidence, and eventually been organized into group PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). Results : The results indicated that there are more diagnosed children than normal in participants and especially children with sensory integration disorder (28.6%) appeared to be the most common. In intervention, group sensory integrative intervention had the largest frequency, and instruments measuring social skills were used most for analyzing the intervention results. The effectiveness of interventions showing statistically significant results were 40.7% of Total. Conclusion : Group occupational therapy for children should be provided to various diagnosis with widely better quality of interventions providing the enough support for the evidence level.
