Body mass index was associated with poorer physical health-related quality of life only in individuals reporting high levels of internalized weight bias.CrossRef PubMed

This review synthesized literature on the views and experiences of obese people and their health-care experiences as well as those of professionals providing health care to obese patients. All thirty studies identified showed that obesity impacted health-care interactions. Experiences of stigma were associated with feelings of powerlessness, treatment avoidance, and psycho-emotional functioning.CrossRef PubMed

    Obese individuals face weight-based stigmatization and discrimination in virtually all areas of life. These stigmatizing experiences can lead to detrimental psychological, physical, and societal consequences and may further perpetuate the increasing prevalence of obesity. A. J. Stunkard was one of the first medical professionals to identify and address the serious ramifications of obesity stigmatization on both individual and societal levels. Throughout the last half-century, Stunkard contributed numerous findings and publications to the field of obesity stigmatization. His work laid the foundation and direction for important areas of current research, such as the cultural influences on weight bias, stigmatization among healthcare professionals, weight stigma among children, and the internalization of weight bias by obese individuals. His contributions have had an important influence on the current directions of these fields.
