Interlocutor Listening Skills Assessment Test

This brief self-report measure is designed to screen perceived listening behaviors in everyday conversation. The Interlocutor Listening Skills Assessment focuses on how individuals attend to, interpret, and respond to another person during interpersonal communication.

Developed by Ralph G. Nichols, it consists of 7 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Responses may be used to identify relative strengths and potential areas for skill-building (e.g., attention to content, responsiveness, and use of feedback) in training, coaching, or other applied settings. The Interlocutor Listening Skills Assessment is not a diagnostic instrument and should be interpreted in context with other clinical or organizational information.
