Research Abstract |
Research was conducted in an attempt to obtain a clear map of the nature of the sub-skills of listening comprehension, a complex cognitive activity. Four types of listening ability were viewed as important sub-skills of listening comprehension : phoneme discrimination ability, grammaticality judgment ability, semanticity judgment ability, and partial dictation ability, and their relationships with general listening proficiency were investigated. The results show, for example, that semanticity judgment ability and partial dictation ability may be more related to general listening proficiency, and that relationships between semanticity judgment ability and partial dictation ability and general listening proficiency may include non-linear elements.
