This project will use novel methods to detect clinically meaningful subgroups of older adults based on long-term trajectories of bothersome pain and function. It will then identify older adults at high risk of experiencing poor long-term pain and function. Anticipated results will provide new insights into long-term patterns of pain and function across the aging process and identify potential predictors of each trajectory.
