corallary: peripheral vision
Peripheral hearing is hearing auditory information on a subconcious level but not quite fully processing what is heard.

It took three erasers to the back of the head for the teacher's question about justice versus courage in plato's the republic to filter through my peripheral hearing. I was busy watching leprachaun acrobatics on the chalkboard.

"yes"... I did hear what you were saying, and "no" I wasn't talking to you! My peripheral hearing was on.

Selective hearing is a bit like WHEN UR DUMB ASS PARENTS call ur name and u say what and they don't say anything till u go to them.
Parent:"Jimmy!! "
Jimmy:what!!
*silence*
Jimmy:WHAT MOM/DAD!!
*Silence again
(This is literally selective hearing)
