Socioeconomic status, physical ability, and (social) environment were perceived to shape opportunities for healthy aging. Peers, family, and cultural norms were both facilitators and barriers to health-promoting behaviors. Lived- and observed experiences of illness motivated general behavior change, not specifically linked to dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Stress, sleep, resilience, and discipline were viewed as influential for cognitive health. Participants often integrated personal, cultural, and social perspectives when interpreting dementia risk.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Perceptions of dementia and Alzheimer's disease risk among culturally diverse individuals are shaped by biological beliefs, psychosocial influences, and social context.
