Abstract
Objective: To assess anxiety and depression and their explanatory factors in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a community-based population.

Cross-tabulation and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate which variables best describe the patients with either high or low depression and anxiety scores. Results
