Janet Jamieson

Professor
Department of Educational Counselling and Psychology, and Special Education (ECPS)

Dr. Jamieson has a longstanding interest in the social development of young deaf and hard of hearing children and the wellbeing of their families, especially a) peer interaction between deaf and hard of hearing children and their hearing peers; b) family support needs of families with young deaf or hard of hearing children; and c) the transition of deaf children to kindergarten. Her scholarship and service have contributed to the establishment of the BC Early Hearing Program.
