What Makes A Good Listener? - Listening Behavior in Instructional Settings
Description: A questionnaire was administered to investigate the knowledge about listening strategies among university students.

A Study of Listening Mode Effects
Description: Video and audio stimuli for listening assessment were compared, as were multiple choice and constructed response modes. The study confirmed that constructed response is more difficult than multiple choice. We also found, however, that video stimuli make constructed responses harder and multiple choice responses easier than when the same responses are tied to audio only stimuli.WordPerfect 5.1 (PC) Total pages: 18

The Predictive Value of the Watson-Barker Listening Test
Description: Using the Watson-Barker Listening Test Form A and Form B as pretest and posttest at the freshman level, this research attempted to determine whether the two forms of the test and the differences between pretest and posttest would be significant predictors of students' final GPA. The results indicated that, while each test form had significance against GPA scores, the correlation was not high enough to predict final GPA, and difference between pre- and posttest had no predictive value when correlated with GPA.Microsoft Word 3.1 (PC) Total pages: 11

Benchmarking Effective Listening: Phase II
Description: This paper is a follow-up to last year's research on benchmarking effective listening.

The paper examines questions such as: What factors do speakers base their global assessment of the listener's effectiveness on and which factors are most important? When does the speaker assess the listener? Does the speaker's prior experience with the listener impact the speaker's assessment of the listener's effectiveness?Microsoft Word 6.0 (Mac) Total pages: 23
