About Jackie Clark
Dr. Jackie Clark completed her Bachelor of Science degree at Colorado State University in 1975 in Merchandising/Textile Science. In 1987 she received her Master of Science degree from the University of Texas at Dallas in Communication Sciences and Disorders, with a dual major in Audiology and Speech-Language-Pathology. In 1995 she received a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Human Development and Communication Sciences from the University of Texas at Dallas. Dr. Clark currently is a Faculty member of UT Dallas’ School of Behavioral & Brain Sciences, Research Associate, and Senior Audiologist at the UTD/Callier Center. She carries an active clinical caseload with clinical duties involving adult and pediatric diagnosis, hearing aid dispensing, and electrophysiological assessments. Her research interests include human evoked auditory potentials, otoacoustic emissions, and pediatric audiology. She has authored many peer reviewed research articles, some book chapters, and has lectured and made numerous invited presentations in many parts of the world.
Dr. Clark has a wide range of volunteer interests. Since 1998 she has lead teams of volunteers annually to Chicuque Mozambique and introduced audiological services to that region of Africa. She is the Chair of the newly created International Society of Audiology Humanitarian Audiologists Committee. Most recently, Dr. Clark has been appointed Managing Editor of the International Journal of Audiology, Publications Director of the Texas Academy of Audiology, and Web Liaison for the International Society of Audiology.
Dr. Clark is board certified with the American Board of Audiology, holds the Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, and is licensed to practice Audiology and dispense hearing aids in the State of Texas. Dr. Clark has also been awarded a Research Adjunct Position with the Speech and Hearing Therapy Division of the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Research Interests
Some of the research interests involve an in depth look at pediatric audiology and broad-based clinical audiological practice to differentiate and or predict types of hearing loss. More specifically by looking at the effects of lifestyle, alcohol, tobacco, childhood exposure to noise on a person’s ability to understand speech in noise, and whether objective measures correlate closely to self-report. In addition, there is an interest in pursuing modifying parameters of the distortion product and transient evoked otoacoustic emissions to aid in differentiating or predicting specific types of hearing loss. There are occasions when analyzing the auditory brainstem evoked responses become helpful as well to differentiate and predict specific types of hearing loss or hearing disorders.
