“…The effects of these factors alone or as synergistic effects on CS or communication-related sub-skill areas can be investigated. Bodie & Fitch-Hauser (2010) stated that if listening is a critical component of communication, it is necessary to discover how the structures that affect communication affect listening, and thus the role and function of listening in the communication process should be further defined. This recommendation can also be generalized to other language skill areas.…”

“…In this context, paying close attention to what is said, asking the other party to explain exactly what you mean, and demanding repetition of ambiguous ideas or statements are among the characteristics of effective listening, which is an interpersonal skill (Klein, DeRouin, & Salas, 2006). According to research, good listening skills lead to greater academic and professional success, as well as increased interaction and relational pleasure (Bodie & Fitch-Hauser, 2010).…”

Conceptually, although the effectiveness of communication is generally associated with the development of language skills, studies that model this relationship comprehensively are limited. Based on this, the current study examines the relationship between different linguistic variables (listening skills, attitude towards reading habits, speech self-efficacy, and writing disposition) and their own and communication skills. The study data was collected from 566 prospective teachers in Turkey. As a result of the study, the theoretical structure between linguistic variables and communication skills has been statistically proven. In the model, it was seen that the model-data fit was at a good level (χ²/df=4.46, CFI=.955, RMSEA=.078, SRMR=.033). The proposed model indicates that listening skills affect communication skills at a medium level and speech self-efficacy at a high level. In addition, writing disposition affects communication skills indirectly through speech self-efficacy, and reading habits affect communication skills indirectly through both listening skills and speech self-efficacy. The highest relationship is between listening skills and speech self-efficacy. Also, the relationships between all the variables are significant. The study supports existing hypotheses about the role language plays in communication skills.

“…From this work, research has discovered several skills that lead to success in listening (Brownell, 2010) and, in turn, the overwhelmingly positive outcomes that stem from listening-related competence (Wolvin & Coakley, 1994). For instance, research shows that competence in listening leads to more productive interactions, greater relational satisfaction, heightened academic and work success, and better healthcare provision (Bodie & Fitch-Hauser, 2010). Even with such a rich academic heritage, there are at least three critiques of this body of literature important for our discussion.…”

“…In either case, the research is motivated by a desire to generate theory, that is, systematic explanations for some set of phenomena. Regrettably, I assume responsibility for enhancing the quantitative/qualitative dichotomy (Bodie & Fitch-Hauser, 2010), and restrictions of language make it necessary to talk about quantitative "versus" qualitative research in some settings (e.g., when designing an edited text aimed at advanced undergraduate/beginning graduate student readers). Nevertheless, the "versus" in that phrase should be used carefully and with full awareness of its limitations.…”
