Knee OA pain is a heterogeneous biopsychosocial condition. Momentary experiences of psychological, social, fatigue, and joint stiffness explain individual and between-individual differences in momentary knee OA pain experiences. Addressing these momentary factors could improve pain and functional outcomes in those with knee OA. Validation studies, including individuals with more severe knee OA presentations, are required to support findings and guide clinical interventions to improve outcomes for those with knee OA.
