    Listening is an _________ process, while hearing is a _____________ process.

    Explanation
    Listening is an active process, while hearing is a passive process. This means that listening requires active engagement and effort from the listener to understand and interpret the sounds being heard. On the other hand, hearing simply refers to the ability to perceive sounds without actively processing or comprehending them.

      10-15%

    • B.

      20-25%

    • C.

      25-50%

    • D.

      50-75%

    • E.

      100%

    Correct Answer
    C. 25-50%
    Explanation
    Research suggests that on average, we remember about 25-50% of the information we hear. Our ability to retain information from auditory sources is limited due to various factors such as distractions, lack of attention, and the way our brains process and store information. Additionally, the effectiveness of our memory can be influenced by individual differences and the importance or relevance of the information being presented. Therefore, it is unlikely that we remember 100% of what we hear, but rather a range between 25-50%.

    Explanation
    Listening is a process that involves actively choosing to listen (act of will), focusing on the speaker and their message (attention), and refraining from forming judgments or opinions (no judging). Giving input and evaluation are not part of the listening process, as they involve responding or analyzing the information received.

    Correct Answer
    E. 93%
    Explanation
    Non-verbal communication includes gestures, body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice. It is widely believed that non-verbal communication accounts for a significant portion of overall communication, often estimated to be around 93%. This high percentage suggests that the majority of our messages are conveyed through non-verbal cues rather than the actual words we speak. Non-verbal communication plays a crucial role in conveying emotions, attitudes, and intentions, and can often have a stronger impact on the receiver than verbal communication alone.

    Non-verbal communication includes various aspects such as pitch, tone, body gestures, facial expressions, eye contact, appearance, body posture, and spatial distance. These elements play a crucial role in conveying messages and emotions without the use of words. Pitch and tone refer to the way someone speaks or the sound of their voice, while body gestures involve movements and actions made by the body. Facial expressions convey emotions and feelings, while eye contact establishes a connection and shows attentiveness. Appearance, body posture, and spatial distance also contribute to non-verbal communication by providing visual cues about a person's personality, attitude, and level of comfort.

    In regards to empathy, saying "I understand" or "understand" can be seen as dismissive or invalidating to the person's feelings or experiences. It implies that you fully comprehend their situation when in reality, you may not truly understand the depth of their emotions or the complexity of their circumstances. It is important to show empathy by actively listening, validating their feelings, and offering support rather than assuming that you completely understand their perspective.
