What is more likely in orthorexia nervosa: perfectionism or OC symptoms? A bayesian method in clinical and non-clinical samples

People on a diet could show similar patterns of symptoms to patients in ON knowledge and feelings. Finally, our results confirm that perfectionism represents a risk factor for ON in each group considered.
