  The purpose of this study was to develop Japanese versions of the Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument (PPLI) and the Adolescent Physical Literacy Questionnaire (APLQ), and to examine its reliability and validity. The subjects were 388 high school students who responded to the questionnaire. The survey items were personal attributes and items related to exercise and sports involvement, and two physical literacy assessment scales, Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument (PPLI) and Adolescent Physical Literacy Questionnaire (APLQ), translated into Japanese. The reliability of the scales was verified by examining the discrimination power using G-P analysis and internal consistency using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and the validity was verified by examining criterion-related validity using correlation analysis with external criteria and construct validity using confirmatory factor analysis. To validate the model, a covariance structure analysis was conducted on the three-factor structure of the original version, and multi group analysis was conducted for both males and females. As the results, regarding the reliability of the scales, the G-P analysis showed that the discrimination power of the subscales and the internal consistency of the reliability coefficients met the criteria. Additionally, no significant differences were found in the total scores of each factor and of each scale by gender and grade. Although there was a significant correlation between each scale and each external criterion, there was no correlation between the two scales and items related to sports participation. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated construct validity of the three-factor structure of the Japanese version of PPLI and APLQ, Furthermore, the results of the multi group analysis showed factor invariance and similarity in the construct models of both scales between males and females. In conclusion, we were able to develop useful Japanese versions of the PPLI and APLQ scales, although some issues remained in the criterion-related validity.
