In vector optimization, topological properties of the set of efficient and weak efficient points are of interest. We study the connectedness of the set \(E^ w\) of all weakly efficient points of a subset Z of a locally convex space X with respect to a continuous mapping p: \(X\to Y\), Y locally convex and partially ordered by a closed, convex cone with nonempty interior. Under the general assumptions that Z is convex and closed and that p is a pointwise quasiconvex mapping (i.e., a generalizd quasiconvex concept), the set \(E^ w\) is connected, if the lower level- sets of p are compact. Furthermore, we show some connectedness results on the efficient points and the efficient and weakly efficient outcomes. The considerations of this paper extend the previous results of \textit{E. U. Choo} and \textit{D. R. Atkis} [ibid. 36, 203-220 (1982; Zbl 0452.90076); Manage Sci. 29, 250-255 (1983; Zbl 0519.90082)] and \textit{A. R. Warburton} [J. Optimization Theory Appl. 40, 537-557 (1983; Zbl 0496.90073)]. Moreover, some examples in vector approximation are given.
