Material & methods: In this study a sample of 400 subjects aged including 200 obese individuals with Body Mass Index (BMI) higher than 30 and 200 normal weight individuals with BMI around were chosen from among those who had referred to Yazd health centers in Iran. Body Mass Index (BMI) formula was used to assess obesity and Beck Inventory (BDI) was used to measure depression. The data were analized through variance analysis. Results: The finding of the present study showed that obesity does not lead to a statistically significant increase in depression rate. Conclusion: Although some other studies indicate the presence of some relationship between obesity and depression, the present study did not confirm this, so it seems that the relationship between these disorders is not a simple one and is under the influence of sociodemographic, psychosocial and cultural factors The Authors.

Introduction Obesity is the most common chronic physical illness in modern society, and depression is the most prevalent psychological condition (Dixon, Dixon, & O'Brien, 2003). The increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity is a major public health concern. Among US adults, prevalence of obesity (defined as a body mass index [BMI, calculated as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters] of 30) increased from approximately 23% in 1990 to 31% in 2000 (Simon, et al. 2006). Obesity is increasingly prevalent and associated with numerous health complications including hypertension, coronary heart disease, and increased mortality (Faith, Matz & Jorge, * Corresponding author.

2 Jafar Askari et al. / Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 84 ( 2013 ) ).On the other hand according to the World Health Organization (WHO), depression is among the leading causes of disability and affecting about 121 million people globally at each moment in time (De Wit et al., 2010) and it is causing huge burden of disease and enormous economic costs, worldwide (Druss, Rosenheck, & Sledge, 2000). Longitudinal studies have found that obesity predicts the subsequent onset of depression (Roberts, Deleger, Strawbridge & Kaplan, 2003). Obese children and adolescents are subjected to social rejection, discrimination and negative stereotyping and such experiences could be expected to lead to negative consequences in terms of selfimage, self-esteem and mood, and there is a widespread assumption that obesity has profound psychological costs (Wardle & Cooke, 2005). Many studies have shown an increase in the prevalence of depression and psychological illness in obese subjects although the nature of the relationship remains unclear (Carpenter, Hasin, Allison & Faith, 2000, Goldstein, Goldsmith, Anger & Leon, 1996). For example Roberts and his colleagues (Roberts et al. 2003) found that obesity at baseline was associated with being depressed at follow-up 5 years later. They demonstrated that obesity was able to predict subsequent depression and their findings suggest a probable causal relationship between obesity and subsequent depression, but didn't support the idea that depression predicts subsequent obesity. To evaluate the relationship between obesity and a range of mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders in the US general population, Simon and his colleagues (Simon et al. 2006) found that obesity is associated with an approximately 25% increase in odds of mood and anxiety disorders and they demonstrated that variation across demographic groups suggests that social or cultural factors may moderate or mediate the association between obesity and mood disorder. To look for predictors of any change in the Beck Inventory (BDI) score after Lap-Band surgery, Dixon and his colleagues (Dixon et al. 2003) used paired preoperative and 1-year data from the 262 available patients who have completed the preoperative and 1-year postoperative questionnaires to identify predictors of change in BDI score with weight loss. e BDI score was greater excess weight loss. In a study the association between obesity and mental disorders in the general populations was examined (Scott et al. 2008). Depressive disorders were assessed with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI 3.0), a fully structured diagnostic interview. Obesity was defined as a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m 2 or greater; severe obesity as BMI 35+. Persons with BMI less than 18.5 were excluded from analysis. The findings showed a relationship between obesity and emotional disorders. This relationship is concentrated among those with more severe obesity (BMI 35+). On the basis of demographic variables (education, sex, and age) first, for education, the results indicate that the relationship between obesity and depressive disorder only occurs in those with more education, rather than in the group with less education, second, the relationship between obesity and depressive disorder is only significant among females, and third, there are no significant effects of age. To examine the association between body size and depression in a longitudinal setting and to explore the connection between obesity and depression in young adults at the age of 31 years Herva and his colleagues (Herva et al. 2006) found that obesity at 14 years associated with depressive symptoms at 31 years. However, some researchers have not found any relationship between obesity and depression (Kress, Peterson, & Hartzell, 2006, Ohayon & Hong, 2006, Friedman & Brownell, 1995, Wyatt, Henter, Mojtabai, Bartko, & Height, 2003). With regard to this contradiction the aim of this study was to find the relationship between obesity and depression under the influence of sex and age variables. 2. Materials and Methods This is a historical cohort study in which 400 subjects aged including 200 obese males and females with Body Mass Index (BMI)>30 and 200 normal weight males and females with the BMI of were investigated. The normal weight group was matched with the obese one in terms of sex, age, marital status, education and employment. Table 1 shows the demographic characteristics of the two groups. Body Mass Index (BMI) formula was used to assess obesity and Beck Inventory (BDI) was applied to measure rate of depression. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).

Table 2 indicates the evaluation of the depression rate of the two groups. Table 3 represents the evaluation of the depression rate of the two groups on the basis of sex variable. As it is shown, the depression rate discrepancy between the two groups is not statistically significant and gender variable has no any effect on this difference. Table 4 indicates the evaluation of the depression rate of the two groups in terms of age variable. Also on the basis of this variable, there is no any significant difference between the two groups.

Discussion Although many surveys indicate a higher depression level among obese individuals, this study did not show any significant difference in the depression rate of the obese and normal weight individuals. It was also revealed that sex and age could not have a significant effect. Certainly, in some other researches also no such relationship has been affirmed (Kress et al. 2006, Ohayon & Hong, 2006, Friedman & Brownell, 1995, Wyatt et al. 2003). An important part of the problem and complexity in associating depression and obesity is derived from the some differences between treatment-seeking obese persons and nontreatment-seeking obese persons or community samples (Fitzgibbon, Stolley, & Kirschenbaum, 1993). Despite, relationships between obesity and psychopathology have been found among obese persons seeking treatment but there is no certainty regarding the relationship between depression and obesity in community studies (Stunkard, Faith, & Allison, 2003). Having reviewed the most recent studies in this area, Wardle & Cooke (2005) conclude that whilst levels of body dissatisfaction are higher in community samples of overweight and obese children and adolescents than in their normal-weight counterparts, few are significantly depressed or have low self-esteem. There does not appear to be a simple or single association between obesity and depression (Faith, et al. 2002). The findings of many researches showed that various factors such as severity of depression, severity of obesity, gender, socioeconomic status (SES), gene-by-environment interactions, childhood experiences, eating and physical activity, teasing, and stress may influence the relationships among these disorders (Friedman, Reichmann, Costanzo, & Musante, 2002, Stunkard, et al. 2003). For example the study of Boutelle, Hannan, Fulkerson, Crow, & Stice (2010) demonstrated that obesity is a risk factor for depressive symptoms, but not for clinical depression. There is evidence that the association between depression and obesity may be strongest only among the most obese individuals (Stunkard, et al. 2003). Some studies also suggest a stronger relationship in girls and women than boys and men (Erickson, Robinson, Haydel, & Killen, 2001, Carpenter, et al. 2000, De Witet et al. 2010). Furthermore, there is evidence that socioeconomic status (SES) influences the association and survey data suggest a stronger association between obesity and depression only among those with higher socioeconomic status (Scott et al. 2008, Simon et al. 2006). In this regard, psychosocial and cultural factors can have a considerable importance so it seems that in more traditional communities in which individualism, sense of superiority and competitiveness are not of high value, obesity will not deprive people of social benefits. In addition, in such societies physical appearance is not of paramount importance due to religious and moral beliefs. Thus obesity resulting no psychological pressure and consequently depression. Attitude toward clothing especially in women also can have an important role, so that in the countries enjoying freedom clothing, an obese patient may be negatively evaluated in terms of physical appearance whereas in societies with no such clothing freedom this problem is less conspicuous. Finally, in regard with the fact that individuals with a BMI of 35 to 40 or higher may suffer more from reactive depression, so it is suggested employing these subjects in the future studies. Concerning this subject that sociodemographic, psychosocial, and genetic factors may render certain obese individuals more prone to depression or vice versa and there are likely multiple obesity-depression covariations in
5 800 Jafar Askari et al. / Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 84 ( 2013 ) the population, rather than a single pattern of association, therefore, there is a need for longitudinal and mechanistic studies to understand casual pathways and greater collaboration between depression and obesity specialists (Faith, et al. 2002). As most knowledge about the relationship between these two disorders results from research devoted to other topics, a systematic exploration of this relationship would help to elucidate causal mechanisms and opportunities for prevention and treatment (Stunkard et al., 2003). Obviously, an understanding of the relationship between obesity and depression requires a comprehensive investigation specifically via controlling intervening variables.
