To clarify research trends of school psychology in the world, a literature review of the journal of the International School Psychological Association during the last three years was conducted. Sixty-four papers were extracted, and the regional trends, research method trends, and research theme trends were clarified. The results showed certain trends in school psychology: (1) research in school psychology is spreading to countries and regions where there has been little research, (2) studies focusing on "culture" have an increasing presence, (3) various kinds of inter ventions corresponding to each stage of psychoeducational ser vices are seen, and (4) the role of the psychologist is strongly influenced by the educational situation and culture of the countr y. Finally, the significance of conducting international comparative studies and the role of educational psychology are briefly mentioned.
