    Correct Answer

    True or FalseWhen interviewing a person, you should ask questions that elicit yes and no answers.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When interviewing a person, it is generally not ideal to ask questions that elicit only yes or no answers. This type of questioning limits the amount of information that can be gathered and hinders the development of a meaningful conversation. Open-ended questions, on the other hand, encourage the interviewee to provide more detailed and insightful responses, allowing for a deeper understanding of their thoughts, experiences, and perspectives. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
