Listening Quizzes, Questions & Answers

Most people can hear what you’re saying, but how many of them are really listening to you? Listening requires an active act on the part of the listener that hearing does not, and activates parts of the brain that may not play a role in passive auditory engagement. While listening may come easily enough to most people who try, some people can actually experience listening disorders, just as others are prevented from hearing by deafness.

If you think you may have an auditory processing disorder that makes you feel like your ears have dyslexia, if you have trouble telling the difference between speech and other sounds, or if you just want to work on being a better listener, take our quiz to find out all there is to know about the business of listening.
