In this research in order to grasp the recent research trends of clothing comfort in Korea, 584 theses have been analyzed about the forms, contents and subjects of their researches which have been published in four Korean Journals from 2000 to 2012. The results are as follows: Many of the research contents were on the clothing comfort and environmental adaptation clothes in all journals. Handle, skin temperature, clothing pressure and working clothes showed the highest frequency ln the key words. The review studies were the fewest, and experimental or survey researches were largely conducted. The research forms showed the significant differences according to the research contents. The subjects were largely focused on those aged from 18 to 29, and among the research subjects on clothing comfort, female were more than male. However, in the researches on clothing quantity and clothes wearing conditions, many of them were the studies whose subjects were both men and women. The male and old subjects increased more and more. The number of the theses in the field of clothing environmentology showed the gradually increasing tendency. The most rates were the theses on clothing comfort, but as the number of those on environment adaptation clothes increased more and more, the research contents in the two fields showed much the same. Though the attention to aging and smart clothes is increasing, the research on this is very few. Therefore, it is thought that the study on this field will have to be conducted actively.

This study was designed to analyze the research methodology and the key concepts used in articles published in each nursing journal of seven branches of the Korean Academy of Nursing. The purpose of this study was for reflecting the trends of nursing research and suggesting the direction of future nursing research in Korea. One thousand three hundred seventy two articles published in seven nursing journals from the beginning year of 2000 were analyzed. The prevailing research designs for these journals were the non- experimental design ranging from 54.3% to 75.7%, the experimental design ranging from 6.2% to 30.4%, and qualitative research design ranging from 3.7% to 10.6%. Research subjects were 10.0% to 46.0% for clients with health problems, 2.1% to 42.4% for generally healthy persons, 1.4% to 43.9% for primary care- givers, 7.0% to 53.5% for nurses or nursing students, and 3.1% to 7.3% for health organizations or nursing organizations. The data collection method used most often self-report questionnaires using psychosocial measures. Interviewing methods and physiologic measures were used relatively few times. The domains of the key concepts that prevailed was personal domain and health domain. This study has the limitation of focusing on only the superficial structural analysis rather than in-depth content analysis of each article. However, this study is the first study for reflecting the trends of nursing research based on each journal of seven branches of the Korean Academy of Nursing.
