Psychometric properties of the ORTO-R in an adult population: the Turkish version, reliability, and validity study.
Article in Eating and weight disorders : EWD, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeThis study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of a Turkish version of the ORTO-R scale by testing its factorial structure, reliability, and validity in a large adult population.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted between November 2022 and February 2023. Through an online questionnaire, 1077 participants were recruited. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to examine the construct validity of the questionnaires. The internal consistency of the ORTO-R scale was evaluated with Cronbach's alpha, Omega and test-retest coefficients. For the convergent and divergent validity of the scale, Pearson correlation analysis was performed on the scores of the Eating Attitude Test-26, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 and the Life Satisfaction Scale.
resultsThe two-factor model fit the data well. Analyses confirmed that the two-factor model of the ORTO-R had acceptable or good fit indices (χ 2/df = 2.126; GFI = 0.997; CFI = 0.992; AGFI = 0.992; TLI = 0.985; RMSEA = 0.032; SRMR = 0.029). According to the reliability coefficients, the orthorexia nervosa and method subscales were found to be reliable. The correlations supported the convergent and divergent validity of the scale.
conclusionsThe results demonstrate that the Turkish version of the ORTO-R is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing orthorexic behaviors in a theoretically meaningful way. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, descriptive study.
