Jaimie Veale
Jaimie F Veale is a Canadian-New Zealand psychology academic, and as of 2021 is a senior lecturer at the University of Waikato. Academic career
Veale has a master's degree from Massey University, completed in 2005. After a 2011 PhD titled Biological and psychosocial correlates of gender-variant and gender-typical identities also at Massey University, Veale moved to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada for three years, before returning to New Zealand and the University of Waikato. In 2017, Veale was funded to research transgender health and "the first comprehensive research project into the health and wellbeing of trans and non-binary people in New Zealand". In 2019–2021, Veale and her work supported changes in the Births, Deaths, Marriages, and Relationships Registration Bill to make it easier for people to change the details on their birth certificates. In 2021, Veale gave a Radio New Zealand interview about the anti-trans backlash to weightlifter Laurel Hubbard representing New Zealand at the 2020 Olympics, in which she described the response as an attempt to deny trans people their human rights. A complaint was laid with the Broadcasting Standards Agency, but it was not upheld. Veale is researching the media coverage of Hubbard. Selected works
