Keyword used for the search was 'Disability Disorder OR Autism (AND) AND (Effect OR Effectiveness)' for international papers and 'Disability AND Sex Education' for domestic papers. Total 15 articles were collected and analyzed in terms of participant, duration, type, contents, and teaching methods with PICO format. Results : In terms of level of evidence, majority was Level III evidence(60%). Most common contents of sex education were 'physical and growth' and 'relational skills'. Special education and occupational therapy were the field that sex education is provided most frequently. Effects of sex education identified were 'sex knowledge', 'sex attitudes', and 'inappropriate sexual behavior'. Conclusion : This study intend aimed to identify content, trends, and effects of sex education for children and adolescents with developmental disabilities in order to provide a basic data for clinical trial of sex education in occupational therapy practice. This study recommend further researches on the effects of sex education on occupational participation, occupational therapists' awareness of sexual activity of clients, and development of related measurement such as sexual development scale.

목적 : 본 연구는 발달장애를 가진 아동 청소년을 위한 성교육의 대상, 기간, 유형, 내용, 교수방법을 체계적으로 분석하여 아동작업치료사에게 성교육에 대한 기초자료와 방향성을 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 연구방법 : 전자 데이터 베이스인 PubMed, EBSCO host(CINAHL Plus with full text), Medline (ProQuest), RISS, KISS를 사용하여 2008년 8월부터 2018년 9월까지 국내외 학회지에 개제된 연구를 대상으로 검색하였다. 주요 용어는 "(Sexual Education OR Sex Education) AND (Disability Disorder OR Autism) AND (Effect OR Effectiveness)"를 해외논문 검색에 사용하였고, 국내논문은 "장애 AND 성교육"으로 검색하여 최종 15편의 연구를 선정하였다. 결과 : 근거의 질적 수준은 대상연구 논문 15편 중 수준 I이 1편, II이 3편, 수준 III이 9편, 수준 IV가 2편이었다. 성교육의 내용으로 '신체와 성장', '대인관계 기술'이 가장 많았으며, 성교육 제공분야는 특수교육, 작업치료 순으로 나타났다. 성교육의 효과는 '성지식'과 '성태도', '문제가 되는 성행동'에 있었다. 결론 : 본 연구는 발달장애를 가진 아동 청소년을 위한 성교육의 내용과 경향, 효과를 고찰하여 작업치료 임상분야에서 실천하기 위한 기초자료로 제시하고자 하였다. 추후에는 성교육 중재를 통한 작업참여 효과 연구, 클라이언트의 성활동에 대한 아동작업치료사의 의식 조사, 성 발달 척도 개발이 필요할 것이다.
