The purpose of this study was to develop a social support scale for the physical activity practice of the elderly, by examining the validity of the corresponding social support structure. Data for this study were obtained from visitors over 60 years of age to 3 facilities in the city of Fujisawa in Kanagawa Prefecture. The first step was an exploratory factor analysis to distinguish the social support structure concerning the physical activity practice of the elderly. In the second stage, a confirmatory factor analysis was performed to examine the validity of 3 models constructed from the distinguished social support structure. We found from the exploratory factor analysis that the social support structure for the physical activity practice of the elderly consisted of informational support, support concerning facilities and programs, human support and support for accessibility. Next, it became clear as a result of the confirmatory factor analysis that validity of the model in which the 4 factors have a mutual relation but are independent had a higher conformable coefficient than the other 2 models.
