Abstract
The aim of this thesis is to analyse association between the quality of life (QoL) and obesity for the population of Flevoland in the Netherlands. Multiple studies have shown an association between specific parts of the QoL and obesity. However, there is still little known on the social, mental and environmental domains compared to the physical domain. The data used in this thesis comes from the health monitor (2016) that has been performed in Flevoland (N=5220). The results of the analyses are supported by the literature presented in this thesis and concluded that there is indeed a negative association between obesity and the QoL. Especially, the mental and social domain show promising results that can be a base for further research on the relationship between the QoL and obesity.
