Given its relevance, the present study sought to reveal the motivational background of orthorexia nervosa (ON) and to examine its association to do sports.
A total number of 739 participants completed a self-administered, online questionnaire including questions related to sports and three scales: Ortho-11-Hu, Motivation for Healthy Behaviors in Orthorexia Nervosa Questionnaire (MHBONQ) and Short Health Anxiety Inventory (SHAI). The age of the respondents ranged from 18 to 72 years (M = 29.67, SD = 10.18) and 79.16% of them were female. The majority of the subjects trained 3-4 times a week (37.2%), usually for 1-2 h per week (25.8%).
According to the hierarchical multiple regression analysis, social desirability, guilt over skipping training and health anxiety were the strongest predictors of ON with explaining 46% of the variance of ON.
The results of the present study suggested that obsessive features of sport activities (guilt over skipping training, counting calories during training) play an important role in ON. People with a higher level of ON tend to reach other people's respect, protect their general health and regulate negative emotional states through healthy eating.
Level V, descriptive cross-sectional study.
鉴于其相关性，本研究旨在揭示神经性厌食症（ON）的动机背景，并研究其与运动的关联。
共有 739 名参与者完成了一份在线自我管理问卷，其中包括与运动相关的问题和三个量表：Ortho-11-Hu、神经性厌食症中健康行为动机问卷（MHBONQ）和短健康焦虑量表（SHAI）。受访者的年龄在 18 至 72 岁之间（M=29.67，SD=10.18），其中 79.16%为女性。大多数受试者每周训练 3-4 次（37.2%），通常每周训练 1-2 小时（25.8%）。
根据层次多重回归分析，社交期望、因错过训练而产生的内疚感和健康焦虑是 ON 的最强预测因子，解释了 ON 变异的 46%。
本研究结果表明，运动活动的强迫特征（错过训练时的内疚感、训练时计算卡路里）在 ON 中起着重要作用。ON 水平较高的人倾向于通过健康饮食获得他人的尊重、保护自己的整体健康和调节负面情绪状态。
五级，描述性横断面研究。
