Orthorexia nervosa and social media: A mixed-methods scoping review using a systematic methodology
The main research gaps found were the absence of experimental studies, lack of studies in non-Westernized populations, restrictive samples, and lack of investigations about developmental pathways. Longitudinal, experimental and qualitative studies in future research are warranted to advance knowledge. Systematic review registration: Open Science Framework (OSF) Registries (DOI https://osf.io/vrqwt).
