Abstract

The purpose of this study is to systematically review and to objectively identify the effect size in order to understand the effects of horticultural therapy on cognitive function, depression, self-esteem, and activity daily living(ADL) of dementia patients. Related studies published in Korean and English were selected by searching domestic and foreign academic databases. The risk of bias assessment of individual studies was performed on the included 18 literatures. Horticultural therapy was found to be significantly effective in cognitive function(effect size=1.06), depression(effect size=0.64), self-esteem(effect size=0.99), and ADL(effect size=1.98) in dementia care. It is expected that related experimental studies will be repeatedly conducted to produce a more objective effect size calculation.
