I've asked 5 people so far. Myself, my SLI mom, and a lady who may be an ESI said they couldn't. My younger brothers, SLE and SEI, say they can listen to two people at once. Anyone else?

I read a description somewhere that said LSI are good at it. I'm doubting there's anything to it.
Personally, if two people are talking at once, I won't be able to understand either of them. I'd have to work even harder to focus on just one of them.
I thought I read awhile back that men could do this, but women couldn't, or had more trouble with it.
It's unpossible for me to even drive and talk on the phone; hell no i can't talk to two people at once.
:lol:
Mr Bean can do it all.

I more or less can, I think.
Typings so far indicate it might be a Ti/Fe vs. Te/Fi thing. Obviously way too small a sample, though.
Yea SEI works in a rhythm that pays attention to the environment so they think everyone has full attention to the surrounding. This doesn't work with rational and when I tell them to let me finish they get annoy by it, as I get annoyed by spontaneous focus in their environment. So sometimes I would ignore them and then they get Ultra piss. I think alpha SF has no boundaries in that term.
I can.

It could be, but its not, seeing as though any of those dichotomies aren't consistent or relevant.

Uhh. I can listen to two people at once. How is this type related?
I can do this... and I can generally pay attention to 2-3 things at once. However, when it comes to responding, I often don't respond to any of them, or only respond to the one that I find most interesting - usually I'm just gathering information when I split my attention like this. I can see why driving and talking on a cell phone would be problematic - white often it would be necessary to respond to both simultaneously. :) 'Course, I almost never drive or talk on a cell phone.
Any sort of feeling that I have to respond, such as when both people are talking to me specifically (and thus I have to look at both of them at once, unless I take up my "you're talking to me and I don't care" position), can make it harder to handle.
basically, i can. but i think i've trained myself into super-duper-multitasking mode.
Musical brains easily pick out speech... - Google News semi-related, maybe.
I am glad that there are people who recognize that M/F dichotomy is more meaningful than E/I, N/S, T/F, P/J and are putting it in polls instead of these 4.
If people are so eager on subtypes they should absolutely use the M/F distinction. It's far more powerful than most of other existing sociocriteriae. And mistypings are extremely unlikely to occur. Of course, one can say; "Why should we use M/F? Isn't it obvious that she is a F,What's the point in all this simplicity? Besides, mistypings are extremely unlikely to occur."
