We undertook this study to investigate the effects of patient\u2010 and disease\u2010specific factors on education and employment outcomes in a group of adult patients with JIA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We performed a cross\u2010sectional study of 103 consecutive adults attending a JIA continuity clinic, and patients who consented completed questionnaires relating to educational achievement, employment status, and functional disability (the Health Assessment Questionnaire disability index [HAQ DI]), and, for those who were employed, the rheumatoid arthritis Work Instability Scale. We used the structural equation modeling technique to study key patient and disease variables for employment in adults with JIA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median age of patients was 24 years (range 17\u201371 years) with median disease duration of 19 years (range 7\u201367 years). Functional disability (the mean HAQ DI score) was significantly lower in patients who were employed (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.03) and in those with oligoarticular JIA (t = 2.29, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.02). Educational achievement was not influenced by JIA subtype (F = 1.18, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.33). Educational achievement measured by General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) grades had a positive effect on the type of job achieved in later life (F = 11.63, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.001), with greater success leading to more professional or managerial posts. In the complex structural equation model, job stability was influenced positively by educational achievement measured by GCSE grades and negatively by the HAQ DI score (t = 10.94, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 6.36 \u00d7 10<jats:sup>\u221216<\/jats:sup>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Educational attainment is key to successful employability and is influenced by functional disability rather than by JIA subtype.
