After accounting for other factors in the final linear regression model, women (ß = -0.35, p = 0.02), younger participants (ß = -0.72, p = 0.001), participants who were from a lower socioeconomic status(ß = 0.99, p < 0.01), and those reporting less perceived susceptibility (ß = 0.05, p = 0.04), more benefits (ß = 0.07, p = 0.03) and fewer barriers (ß = 0.10, p < 0.05) to adopting a healthy lifestyle had significantly lower dementia risk scores (R2 = 0.97, F(18,745) = 3.56, p < 0.001) (Table 4).
