<p>  The purpose of this research was to examine changes and problems in the concept of independence in the study of home economics through an investigation of research papers about independence in home economics. We also aimed to present perspectives to overcome these problems. The following points became clear.</p><p>  1. In the first period, research aimed to foster independence with regard to everyday life and to show that independence can be achieved by yourself.</p><p>  2. In the second period, research was focused on not only independence in everyday life, but on psychological independence, economic independence, and social independence. However, the concept of independence did not change from that in the first period.</p><p>  3. In the third period, research was focused on independence as the premise of dependence. However, in the study of consumption life, independence was regarded as how an independent individual can consider how to build a better society.</p><p>  4. Based on the results, it is necessary to understand that the concept of independence in the study of home economics is the creation of a relationship of interdependence.</p>
