Summary

This study proposes to experimentally manipulate pain catastrophizing in order to investigate the neural mechanisms by which pain catastrophizing influences the experience of pain among non-Hispanic Blacks (NHBs) and non- Hispanic Whites (NHWs) with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, participants will be randomized to either a single session cognitive-behavioral intervention to reduce pain catastrophizing or a pain education control group.
