1. Which question would be considered a “leading question?”
h h h h h h h




a. “What do you think is causing your headaches?”
h h h h h h h




b. “You don’t get headaches often, do you?”
h h h h h h




c. “On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate the severity of your headaches?”
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




d. “At what time of the day are your headaches the most severe?”
h h h h h h h h h h h




ANS: B h




Stating to the patient that he or she does not get headaches would limit the
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




h information in thepatient’s answer. Asking the patient what he or she thinks is
h h h h h h h h h h h h h




h causing the headaches is an open-ended question. Asking the patient how he or
h h h h h h h h h h h h




h she would rate the severity of the headaches and asking what time of the day the
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




h headaches are the most severe are direct questions.

ANS:
h A
Asking open-ended questions during the sensitive part of the interview allows
h h h h h h h h h h




h you to gather more information and establishes you as an empathic listener,
h h h h h h h h h h h




h which is the first step of effective communication. Asking closed-ended
h h h h h h h h h




h questions may stifle the patient’s desire to discuss the history of the illness.
h h h h h h h h h h h h




h Interviewing for the purpose of designing a genogram or conducting a review of
h h h h h h h h h h h h




h systems requires more focused data than can be more easily gatheredwith direct
h h h h h h h h h h h h




h questioning.

3. Periods of silence during the interview can serve important purposes, such as:
h h h h h h h h h h h




a. allowing the clinician to catch up on documentation.
h h h h h h h




b. promoting calm. h




c. providing time for reflection. h h h




d. increasing the length of the visit. h h h h h




ANS: C h




Silence is a useful tool during interviews for the purposes of reflection,
h h h h h h h h h h h




h summoning courage, and displaying compassion. This is not a time to document
h h h h h h h h h h h




h in the chart, but rather to focus on the patient. Periods of silence may cause
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




h anxiety rather than promote calm. The length of the visit is less important than
h h h h h h h h h h h h h




h getting critical information.
