Brief Summary: The aim of this project will be to document the central and peripheral mechanisms, which may predict clinical pain characteristics and associated physical performance in older adults. Although chronic pain is common among older adults, there is limited understanding on the processing of pain and the mechanisms by which it affects physical function in these individuals. The first aim of this study will be to examine predictors of clinical pain in older adults. These will include a comprehensive somatosensory assessment battery including mechanical and thermal detection and pain thresholds in older adults with and without chronic pain. The investigators will also assess basal cognitive and physical function to determine their associations with chronic pain. Finally, brain structure and function will be assessed in these older adults with and without pain.
Detailed Description: The purpose of this research study is to learn more about how pain in older individuals changes the brain and impacts a person's mobility and function. Pain is influenced by biology (like hormones), psychology (thoughts and feelings), and habits (like sleep or exercise) that may make older adults more likely to have higher or lower levels of pain.
