In Korea, consumer researches have been accomplished in the field of family economics or business management individually. The field of consumer studies progressed in both sides of quantity and quality since the establishment of the Korean Society of Consumer Studies(KSCS). The field of consumer studies is moving toward an uni-disciplinary stage from an interdisciplinary stage. In this time, it is very meaningful to review the research trend in consumer science and to look out the future prospect. This study reviewed and analyzed all of the papers published in Journal of Korean Home Economics Association from 1980 to 1999, Journal of Korean Home Management Association from 1984 to 1999 and Journal of Consumer Studies from 1990 to 1999.
