Dementia is a syndrome in the form of decreased cognitive function. Wandering is a neuropsychiatric symptom that has an impact on mortality rates which are indicators of achievement of subjective well-being. The study aimed to determine relationship between subjective well-being and risk of wandering among elderly with dementia.

The result showed that there is positive effect of social leisure activity in reducing wandering risk (p=0,000) and increasing subjective well-being (p=0,000). Subjective well-being has a significant correlation with the risk of wandering at the post-test (p=0,000). The result given between characteristic’s elderly and subjective well-being showed p-value less than 0,05 excepted on neuropsychiatric symptoms.
