Factors affecting listening comprehension

Joseph P. Boyle

Any study of listening comprehension must take into account the factors involved. This Hong Kong study began with a survey of the factors most frequently mentioned in the literature on listening comprehension. Then a cross-section of teachers working at secondary and tertiary levels was consulted. Finally, a sample of students who had just finished their secondary education was questioned. The factors that emerged are listed and discussed here in the hope that the information will prove useful to those involved in the teaching and testing of listening comprehension in a variety of different teaching situations.
