Examined the independent associations of disease activity and resilience with performance and G8 outcomes.
Adults with RA displayed poorer performance and G8 scores compared to controls.
Significant independent associations were found between disease activity, resilience, and outcomes in RA.

Adults with RA showed less favorable performance and G8 profiles than matched controls. Within RA, disease activity and resilience were independently associated with objective performance and G8 outcomes. Longitudinal studies are needed to determine temporal relationships and prognostic relevance.
