Reflective listening occurs when you ask questions and use the speaker’s responses to form new questions.

Situations that require reflective listening include

class or group discussions; and

interviews.

The difference between critical and reflective listening is subtle.

Critical listening involves making evaluations about material you hear. Reflective listening does not require you to make such evaluations. Instead, you are participating in a discussion by asking questions in response to what someone has said.

Appreciative listening occurs when you identify and analyze artistic elements, such as character development in a movie, rhyme in a spoken poem, and descriptive language in a story.

Situations that require appreciative listening include

oral presentations of a poem;

dramatic performances; and

concerts.

Empathetic listening occurs when you imagine yourself in the other person’s position and try to understand what he or she is thinking or feeling. The speaker feels valued and respected since the listener responds with feeling or compassion.

Situations that require empathetic listening include

personal conversations with friends or family; and

one-on-one conversations with a co-worker or teacher.

Critical listening is listening for facts and supporting details so you can make evaluations and judgments about what you hear.

Critical listening is also active. The more you involve yourself in the listening process, the more you will understand the words being spoken.

Situations that require critical listening include

informative or persuasive speeches;

class discussions; and

announcements.

Types of Listening

Different situations call for different types of listening.

For example, you use different listening skills when you have a conversation with a friend than when you listen to a teacher.

While there are two ways to listen, there are four main types of listening: critical, empathetic, appreciative, and reflective.

When taking notes, pay attention to the kinds of situations that go with these four types of listening.

these servants know ulysses by the scar he got when he was a child - so when he showed them the mark, they immediately knew this is truly their master and they hugged him, finally starting to believe his words.
