Abstract
:

As there is no measure available in Chinese for assessing orthorexia nervosa (ON), and as the Düsseldorf Orthorexia Scale (DOS) has demonstrated to be a valid measure for such a purpose, the current study aimed to obtain a Chinese version of the DOS (C-DOS), to evaluate psychometric properties of the C-DOS in a sample of Chinese university students, and to explore the prevalence of ON among the participants.
