Research in second language listening is inadequate with regard to
impact of certain demographic variables such as gender, age, and
geographical localities in a country. Role of these factors in
listening of English as a foreign language was studied in present
research. Three hundred and fourteen students of functional
courses of English language of public and private language
institutes filled in modified version (Fayyaz & Kamal, 2011) of
Metacognitive Awareness Listening Questionnaire (Vandergrift,
Goh, Mareschal, & Tafaghodtari, 2006). Factorial analysis of
variance showed that women were significantly higher on overall
use of listening strategies, whereas participants belonging to
different geographical locations were relatively equal on these
strategies. No interaction effect was established between the three
predicting factors. The findings are likely to have implications for
research and teaching of English in Pakistan. However, modest
effect size of relationships does not allow generalized conclusion.
