Victoria Clarke is a UK based psychologist, as well as currently an Associate Professor at the University of the West England, Bristol. Her work focuses on qualitative psychology as well as critical psychology, with her background being in fields such as women studies, queer psychology, and qualitative methods. Her focus and research has led to advances in the intersection between queer psychology and qualitative methods, such as investigating the inner workings of LGBT parenting from both a queer studies perspective, as well as a psychological one. This work was done under Claire Burgoyne and Janet Reibstein, as a fellow at the University of Exeter, and could be counted as a stepping stone for her career in analytical research in qualitative methods, and queer psychology, leading to a multitude of journals and books covering these topics to be published. Key standouts being "Collecting Qualitative Data: A Practical Guide to Textual, Media and Virtual Techniques" and "Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer psychology: an introduction". Clarke's method of research being that of thematic analysis and qualitative methods have been pivotal to her findings within queer psychology, leading to regicition, and awards, within both the queer world, but also the psychological one.

Biography

Higher Education

Victoria Clare first started her educational career at Brunel University in September 1993. Here her field of study was Psychology, and she graduated in June 1997.[1] After graduation at Brunel University, Clarke entered Loughborough University adding the field of study of Women's Studies, along with her prior focus of Psychology.[1] Clarke ended up graduating from Loughborough in May 2002. Lastly, Clarke got her postgraduate education at University of the West England, Bristol, graduating in July 2004.[1]

Career

While acquiring her education, Clarke was also quite involved in research, specifically in topics intersecting Women's Studies, and Psychology, her two main fields of study.

Between Oct. 1997 and March 2002, Clarke worked as a PhD student at Loughborough University. Here she worked in the Department of Social Sciences at the University. Her focus as a research assistant was on the topic of LGBT parenting, while exploring the social construction of this topic.[1]

After her work at Loughborough University Clarke worked under Claire Burgoyne and Janet Reibstein, as a research fellow at the University of Exeter. Reibstein and Burgoyne focused on a specific qualitative research project that covered topics such as the ways individuals managed their money, as well as exploring the meaning of commitment and marriage preparatory classes, and their success, within heterosexual relationships.[1]

Currently Clarke is an Associate Professor in Sexuality Studies/Qualitative and Critical Psychology at the University of the West England, Bristol. Her research and teaching is centered around the intersection of topics that of qualitative methods of psychology, queer psychology, along with human sexuality and gender studies.[1]

Research

Qualitative Research in Psychology

Qualitative research is another form of thematic analysis, two fields Clarke conducts research with, as far as analysis of her research experiments. Thematic analysis covers examining and analyzing specific patterns found within pools of data. In Clarke's heavily cited journal entry "Using thematic analysis in psychology" she covers the topic of analysing qualitative data, in a research setting within a psychological standpoint. Clarke also gives insight into the inner working of thematic analysis, especially in relation to pattern and theme discovery and how it differs from other qualitative analytic methods. This entry is also speaking to those who want to use this tactic, and Clarke is able to identify how to practice this research method, along with the advantages and disadvantages it can bring.[3]
