국내 조정 연구의 30년 동향 분석: 1995-2025년 = Thirty Years of Rowing Research in Korea (1995–2025): A Scoping Review of Trends and Disciplines

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Rowing is a team sport in which performance depends on synchronized rhythm and precise timing among teammates. In Korea, however, most studies have focused on individual physiological factors to enhance performance, while aspects such as team coordination, synchronization, psychological factors, and the role of coaches relatively understudied. Therefore, this study conducted a systematic scoping review to examine research trends and disciplinary characteristics of domestic rowing studies published over the past 30 years (1995-2025) to identify gaps in rowing research. A total of 93 papers were selected through database searches, duplicate removal, and eligibility screening. Each study was categorized by publication year, academic field, and research subject. The results showed a gradual increase in publication volume since the late 2000s, with an annual average of more than five studies since 2020, indicating a growing academic interest in rowing. By academic field, exercise physiology accounted for 68% of all studies, followed by sport psychology (17%), sport sociology (5%), and physical education, philosophy of physical education, and biomechanics (3% each). In terms of research subjects, 76% of the studies focused on athletes, while only 4% targeted coaches. Overall, domestic rowing research has predominantly emphasized athletes’ physiological aspects, whereas studies on coordination, synchronization, psychological factors, and coaching remain limited. These findings highlight the need for future research adopting multidisciplinary perspectives to promote a more comprehensive understanding of rowing performance.
