Sampel penelitian adalah 141 lansia berumur lebih dari sama dengan 60 tahun yang diambil secara purposive sampling. Demensia diukur menggunakan kuesioner MMSE (² 24, skor maksimum 30) dan asupan riboflavin diukur menggunakan form Semi Quantitative – FFQ. Penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa 47,5% usila mengalami demensia. Hasil uji statistik menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara umur, tingkat pendidikan, dan asupan riboflavin dengan kejadian demensia pada usila (nilai p < 0,05).
