dc.description.abstractBackground: Obesity is more common among women living in rural areas of Turkiye and being overweight affects the quality of life of women. Aim: Through this study, we aimed to determine the quality of life and related factors of overweight women living in rural areas. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive correlational study. The data were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Scale of Quality-of-Life Overweight Women (SMQLOW) between April and June 2020. The study sample comprised women with a body mass index (BMI) of 25 and above. Results: The study included 201 women, 41.8% of the participants were in the 36-51 age group and 50.2% had a BMI between 30 and 49.2 (obese). It was determined that the quality of life of women was at a moderate level. The difference between the total SMQLOW score with respect to age, educational status, economic status, occupation of the spouse, general health status, and BMI were found to be statistically significant (P < 0.05). We examined the correlation of some variables with the total scale score of overweight women. A significant positive and weak correlation was found between weight and the SMQLOW total score (r = 0.390, P = 0.001). There was a positively weak and highly significant, correlation between waist circumference and SMQLOW total score (r = 0.277, P < 0.001). Conclusion: Preventing obesity may improve the quality of life among rural women in the study Population.en_US
