“…Moreover, the variance that negative body attitude could explain on both ON and HO was found to be zero. These results are consistent with studies that concluded that there is no relationship between body image and orthorexia nervosa (Moroze et al 2015, Bundros et al 2016, Topçu & Arıcak 2019, Yıldırım 2020. According to Brytek-Matera et al ( 2018), orthorexia nervosa may be differentiated from other eating disorders by not feeling any anxiety about body weight and shape.…”

“…In other words, individuals with ON are not expected to exhibit body restlessness, body dissatisfaction, and concerns about their bodies (Dunn & Bratman 2016). Some studies supporting this view did not find a significant relationship between body dissatisfaction and ON symptoms (Moroze et al 2015, Bundros et al 2016, Topçu and Arıcak 2019. Nevertheless, there are findings indicating that there is a positive relationship between negative body attitudes and ON (Brytek-Matera et al 2015, Barnes & Caltabiano 2016, Barthels et al 2021.…”

Orthorexia nervosa (ON) refers to a pathological obsession with healthy eating characterized by a restrictive diet, ritualized eating patterns, and strict avoidance of foods believed to be unhealthy or unclean. On the other hand, healthy orthorexia (HO) is defined as an interest in healthy eating and a tendency to eat healthy foods. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between the ON, HO, maternal rejection, perfectionism, self-critical rumination, and body attitude in the women sample. 445 female students from diverse universities in Turkey was attended to our study. Participants completed questionnaires regarding ON and HO, body attitude, maternal rejection, perfectionism, and self-critical rumination. The results showed that negative body attitudes could not predict both HO (B=-.008, SE=.039, p=.791) and ON (B=.008, SE=.032, p=.835). However, perfectionism and self-critical rumination had mediator roles in the relationship between ON and HO with maternal rejection, despite this relationship was positive for ON (B = .014, Boot SE = .007, 95% Boot CI [.003, .029]), but negative for HO (B = -.023, Boot SE = .010, 95% Boot CI [-.042, -.008]). Not a negative body attitude, but maternal rejection, perfectionism, and self-critical rumination played roles in developing orthorexic tendencies.
