The aim of this study was to adapt the Orthorexia Nervosa Inventory for use in Hungarian (ONI-Hu), and explore its associations with disordered eating, intuitive eating and mental health measures.
944 participants completed a test battery, including ONI-Hu, the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire, the Intuitive Eating Scale-2 and the Mental Health Continuum Short-Form. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to assess the validity of ONI-Hu. Correlation and regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the convergent and discriminant validity.
CFA confirmed the original three-factor structure of ONI-Hu. Positive associations were found between ONI scores and restrictive eating behaviors, and negative associations with intuitive eating measures. Furthermore, the ONI composite factor score displayed no significant relationship with mental health indicators.
ONI-Hu exhibits strong reliability and validity, and provides a deeper understanding of ON. Results suggest that orthorexic behaviors may serve as a coping mechanism, offering an illusion of control and emotional security. Inconsistent findings about the relationship between ON tendencies and mental health indicators propose that the sense of control might provide a false sense of well-being to the individual, distorting their perceptions of their overall health. Level of evidence Level V, descriptive cross-sectional study.
本研究旨在使《神经性正食症量表》适用于匈牙利语（ONI-Hu），并探讨其与饮食失调、直觉饮食和心理健康指标之间的关联。
944名参与者完成了一组测试，包括ONI-Hu、三因素饮食问卷、直觉饮食量表-2和心理健康连续体简表。采用验证性因素分析（CFA）来评估ONI-Hu的效度。进行相关性和回归分析以评估聚合效度和区分效度。
CFA证实了ONI-Hu最初的三因素结构。ONI得分与限制性饮食行为之间存在正相关，与直觉饮食指标之间存在负相关。此外，ONI综合因素得分与心理健康指标之间无显著关系。
ONI-Hu具有很强的信度和效度，并能更深入地理解正食症。结果表明，正食症行为可能是一种应对机制，提供一种控制感和情绪安全感的错觉。关于正食症倾向与心理健康指标之间关系的不一致发现表明，控制感可能会给个体提供一种虚假的幸福感，扭曲他们对自身整体健康的认知。证据水平 五级，描述性横断面研究。
