Summary

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of GGON to decrease the maladaptive beliefs associated with orthorexia nervosa (ON) in non-clinical adult population. Specifically, a randomized controlled trial with crossover assignment design and two groups (experimental and control) will be carried out in adults aged 18-65 years to assess the changes pre and post use the app. It's expected that after the use of the GGON app for 15 days are, at the primary level: decrease in the degree of ascription to dysfunctional beliefs associated with ON; and at the secondary level: decrease in orthorexia nervosa symptomatology, in eating symptomatology and in obsessive beliefs; increase in self-esteem; and no changes in drepessive symptomatology. These results are also expected to be maintained in subsequent follow-ups, at 15 days and a month after to finish the app in experimental group, and 15 days after to finish the app in control group.
