Discriminative Listening
Through listening we can identify different sounds by just hearing it and know their differences and their
meaning, and this type of listening is called Discriminative Listening. Example of this is the ff:
1. Listening to different music and we can figure out what we heard for the first time and the one
we have heard before.
2. A baby recognized and know the difference between the sound of voice of his/her mother and
father.
3. Recognizing and determining different kinds of emotion. Example when you ask your friend how
is she and she answered “I’m fine” but it doesn’t sound like she’s fine and with that you can
determine her real emotion.

Comprehensive listening effectively you should at least have basic language skills, basic vocabulary skills
and know different gestures and tone of voice. Example are the ff:

being said.

Attentive/Active Listening
Listening is easy, but listening attentively required so much effort and focus. We listen to understand,
and we understand by listening the word attentively. We also understand by listening the thoughts,
emotions or feelings and tone of voice of the person speaking to us.
Example:
1. Listening to speaker delivering his/her speech by putting aside distracting thoughts.

2. Listening to speaker not only to his/her speech but also his/her body language.
3. Listening and providing feedback like nodding and smiling. Through this you can say that you
are listening carefully because you are reacting to what the speaker trying to communicate.

Pretence/Passive Listening
This type of listening involves more hearing than listening. It’s the opposite of Attentive/Active Listening.
It’s kind of listening in a way but you’re not fully attentive to what the person is trying to communicate
to you. You’re not making an effort to process or absorb the information and pretends to react to it as if
you understand it, but you’re not.
Example:
1. Listening to music while you’re multitasking, you’re enjoying the music without understanding
what the lyrics about.
2. Listening to speaker delivering his/her speech while you’re feeling sleepy. You’re listening but
not accepting what he/she is trying to convey and not reacting to it.

Selective listening
This type of listening is ineffective type of listening because you tend to listen but absorbing only
what you want you want to hear and what you want to understand. You’re making an assumption to
information you only want to absorb and making conclusion to it that will later on lead to
miscommunication.
1. When you’re not in the mood to have a conversation with your friend but he keeps talking
to you and telling you a story you don’t care about but you don’t what her to get offended
so you’re trying to listen to him but not absorbing everything he say.
2. If you are watching a movie and talking to your friend at the same time and you’re having a
trouble focusing on both so you are being selective on what you want to hear.

Intuitive Listening
This type of listening requires presence of mind. It’s hearing what the person is saying between the
lines. Listeners should be more attentive and alert about the speaker’s intention and attitude.Liste
Example:
1. Listening to someone opening up about their mental health. You’re listening to him/her
by capturing every detail without making mistakes.
