Moreover, psychometric network analysis, as a complement to traditional latent variable modeling approaches, has not been used for examining the psychometric properties of the IES-2. Thus, the present study used a psychometric network approach to evaluate the psychometric properties of the IES-2 in Chinese adults from the general population. A sample of 700 Chinese general adults (50% women; <i>M</i><sub>age</sub> = 31.13 years, <i>SD</i> = 9.19) recruited online were included in the present study.

For example, two items (i.e., “I trust my body to tell me when to eat,” and “I trust my body to tell me when to stop eating”) related to reliance on body cues were the most impactful nodes in the complete network.
