 Examples of closed sets are: 
  • Numbers from 1 - 10
  • Names of family members                               
Bridge or Limited Set:  A bridge or limited set is one in which the context or category
 is clearly established, but the specific items in the set are not clearly present or defined.  


Examples of bridge/limited sets are: 
  • Animals
  • Items in a drug store
Open Set: In open set listening, there is no established content and possibilities are unlimited.  

Examples of open set listening situations are: 
  • Carrying on a conversation over the telephone
  • Listening to a news program on the radio or TV
