Abstract:	Outcome expectations are a determinant of exercise engagement and adherence. However, the factors that influence outcome expectations for exercise remain poorly understood for people with knee osteoarthritis. In this paper, a cross-sectional study was conducted by recruiting 211 older adults from three clinics in Southern Taiwan. This study explored older adults with knee osteoarthritis exercise outcome expectations and perceived health, self- efficacy, and fear of falling. The older adults completed the Outcome Expectations for Exercise Scale (OEES), the pain and physical function subscales of Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), the Perceived Health Status Scale, the Self-Efficacy for Exercise scale (SEE- C), the Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC), the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS). Multiple logistic regression models were used to determine associations between outcome expectations for exercise and physical and psychosocial outcomes in the knee OA population. Among the participants of the cross-sectional study, the mean age was 72.04 (SD = 5.53) years, and 71.6% were female. Higher outcome expectations for exercise were associated with higher physical function (OR = 0.98; 95% CI [0.96–1.99]; p = 0.007), better perceived health (OR = 1.30; 95% CI [1.12–1.51]; p < 0.001), greater self-efficacy (OR =1.03; 95% CI [1.01–1.04]; p = 0.006), and less fear of falling (OR = 3.33; 95% CI [1.21–9.19]; p = 0.020). Thus, the results indicated that outcome expectations for exercise among the participants were significantly associated with physical function, perceived health, self-efficacy, and fear of falling. These findings suggest the importance of personal factors in the design of interventions to promote exercise behavior changes among elderly patients with Knee Osteoarthritis.
