Students at The Ohio State University at Marion will have another opportunity this fall to participate in meaningful research that not only engages them in producing new scientific knowledge, but also helps provide practical career and grad school research experience.

After attending The University of Dayton for only one semester, junior psychology major Hannah Belden, found her fit at The Ohio State University at Marion. Belden wanted to find a smaller, more personalized educational experience, so she transferred to Ohio State Marion on the recommendation of a friend and ended up staying longer than she anticipated.

Ohio State Marion Professor of Psychology, Dr. Tracy Tylka is featured in a January 6, 2020 published article by The Huff Post (Huffington Post) entitled, "Intuitive Eating: What It Is, And Why It Could Work For You." The body image and eating behavior researcher concludes from her research that intuitive eaters “are aware of and trust their body’s internal hunger and satiety cues and use these cues to determine when and how much to eat.”
