About this listen

Dr. Sam Hahn of Central Michigan University joins the podcast to discuss one of her recent papers that examines how weight perception--how one personally views themselves in terms of overweight, normal weight, underweight--and its potential changes throughout adolescence could predict disordered eating patterns in young adulthood. The episode also touches on Dr. Hahn's interest in investigating how other self-monitoring behaviors (self-weighing, electronic tracking devices, etc.) influences eating patterns, mood, and weight-related behaviors, particularly for vulnerable populations and young adults.
