    The theoretical models of obesity have shown that quality of life is associated with negative emotions, body dissatisfaction and depression symptoms (Hemmingson, 2015; Marks, 2015; Raman et al., 2013). The objective of the study was to assess whether negative emotions, body satisfaction and depression symptoms predict quality of life in patients with obesity. The study included 60 obese participants (BMI ? 30 kg/m2 ). The mean age was 40,97 years (SD = 10,80) and the mean BMI was 33,76 kg/m2 (SD = 3,56). All participants completed the Situational Inventory of Body Image Dysphoria (Cash, 2002), the Contour Drawing Rating Scale (Thompson and Gray, 1995), the Beck Depression Inventory (Beck and Steer, 1993) and the Body Image Quality of Life Inventory (Cash and Fleming, 2002). We found that higher levels of negative emotions (ß = -0,515; p < 0,001) predicted quality of life in patients with obesity. Whereas, body satisfaction (ß = 0.137; p > 0,05) and depression symptoms (ß = -0,262; p > 0,05) were not significant predictors of quality of life. In patients with obesity, negative emotions were the strongest negative determinant of quality of life. Therefore, psychological interventions for patients with obesity should focus on reduction negative emotions to increase their quality of life.
