Abstract
This study was designed as a meta-analysis to investigate the research trends in mathematics learning disabilities(MLD) area. The results of this study were as follows: The 201 researches targeted for the analysis can be categorized 4: characteristic of students with MLD, screening students with MLD, interventional teaching for students with MLD, and et cetera. Also, the outcomes of researches regarding intervention in MLD determined to have a large effect resulted in a total average of 0.958. Especially, as a result of analysing the effect size in accordance with teaching method variables in group-case designed researches, the effect was largest when direct instruction and strategy instruction was given. The effect was largest when the frequency of intervention was over 16 and under 20. The results in this study be summed up as follows. MLD can be served as a foundation in setting a direction for further research to improve in Korea.
