Rethinking the Role of Attention in Listening Theories and Practice
Despite decades of theorizing, attention remains a central but underexamined construct in listening research. Revisiting attention as both a gate and a gradient reframes how listening is understood, measured, and taught. We propose that listening competence cannot be fully explained by attentional control alone and that pedagogical approaches should incorporate strategies for accessing and retraining intuitive listening habits, not simply intensi…
Resilience and self-regulated learning as predictors of student competence gain in times of the Covid 19 pandemic – evidence from a binational sample
Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) was introduced around the globe during the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure that students could continue with their studies during social distancing. Subsequent studies found considerable individual differences in the adjustment to ERT and identified resilience as a critical factor for coping with the challenges of independent studying. The growing evidence led to calls for resilience training in preparation for emergen…

The influence of individual noise sensitivity on mobile phone attitudes and behavior
Research in psychoacoustics and public health reveals that individuals respond differently to noise, with some being more sensitive to noise than others. Given the prevalence of mobile technology and that noise sensitivity appears to be a relatively stable individual difference, it is possible that noise sensitivity may distinguish individual mobile phone use. This study investigates the relationship between noise sensitivity and mobile phone att…

Making Attributions to the Physician following Closing Arguments of a Simulated Medical Malpractice Suit
This study examined jurors' health locus of control, locus of authority, sex, and attribution assigned to the physician in a simulated trial by subject-jurors. Subjects viewed videotaped closing arguments of a fictionalized medical malpractice case and assigned fault to each party in the case. The primary finding was that women tended to assign greater responsibility (57.00%) to the physician than did men (37.92%)
