Correlation of the DOS scale with other orthorexia scales

	Pearson correlation coefficient	p
TOS OrNe	0.715	< 0.001
TOS HeOr	0.754	< 0.001
ORTO	− 0.383	< 0.001

DOS = Düsseldorf Orthorexia Scale; TOS = Teruel Orthorexia Scale; The ORTO scores are reversed (lower scores indicate more orthorexia nervosa); negative correlation supports our hypothesis in this case
