Abstract

This study was intended to look into the past and present timeframe in regard to an identified Korean health psychology and works to predict future changes within that paradigm. First, we tried to explore the efforts of the Korean Health Psychological Association established in 1994: its history and development; the fields of its activities, seminars and monthly meetings on health psychology; the Korean Journals of Health Psychology;conferences and workshops; News Letters; "Plans to Contribute to the Development of the Korean Health Psychology Association" of the experts in the clinical health psychology; as well as a review of the status of its members. Second, we looked at understanding Korea's health promotion policy (Korea's Ministry of Health and Welfare) and important health indicators in Healthy People 2020(USDHHS, 2010). Finally, we predicted a change in the future issues related to health psychology.
