Abstract: Lifestyle is formed by the daily habits of a personal, and depending on the behavior, health problems, or premature death are affected. Efforts and research to maintain and improve healthy lifestyles in public health continue. This study tried to develop a tool that can be quantitatively evaluated through the Activity, Interest, and Opinion (AIO) technique and to verify the validity of the tool to understand the lifestyle based on personal values at a microscopic point. Lifestyle evaluation tool was developed through Delphi surveys. The development items consisted of three categories (activity, interest, opinion) that can understand contextual factors such as individual values, opinions, and interests, and items with 24 concepts. The Delphi survey consisted of a panel of 17 experts in the field of health-care for the elderly, and convergence and consensus were confirmed in two rounds. The average content validity ratio of the final Delphi survey was 0.89, stability 0.16, convergence 0.42, and consensus 0.76, which were high. The developed tool is expected to be used in empirical research to identify the lifestyle reflecting the values of the elderly and to promote health.
