| dc.description.abstract | The research was conducted to determine the level of weight self-stigma, depression loneliness and whether is there a rela-tionship between them. This was a descriptive correlational study. The study was conducted in a diet outpatient clinic of a university hospital. Participants had moderate weight self-stigma, depression and loneliness. Weight self-stigma sub-dimensions self-devaluation ([3=0.28; p<0.001) and fear of enacted stigma ([3=0.28; p<0.001) equally predicted depression. Fear of enacted stigma predicted social loneliness negatively ([3=-.44; p<0.001). Fear of enacted stigma ([3 =.16, p<.005) and depression ([3 =.44, p<.001) predicted emotional loneliness positively. Weight self-stigma was positively correlated with depression and loneliness (p<0.001). | |
