AB  - This study evaluated the psychometric properties of a Chinese version of the 
      24-item Social Environment Questionnaire (SEQ-C). Confirmatory factor analysis 
      was used to examine the factor validity and measurement invariance (Purpose 1) of 
      the SEQ-C in 453 older adults in Hong Kong. Convergent validity (Purpose 2) and 
      test-retest reliability (Purpose 3) were also measured. The results of the 
      confirmatory factor analysis and measurement invariance supported the four-factor 
      structure (representing companionship, encouragement, neighborhood social 
      cohesion, and role models) of the SEQ-C, in a 15-item model that closely fitted 
      the data. The SEQ-C was also found to have acceptable to satisfactory internal 
      consistency, test-retest reliability, composite reliability, and moderate 
      convergent validity in correlating perceived social support. This study showed 
      that the SEQ-C is a suitable means of measuring the social environments of older 
      adults in Hong Kong.
