USING OPEN-ENDED QUESTIONING IN ASSESSMENT

Open-ended questions cannot be answered in a one- or two-word response. Rather, they are phrased to encourage elaboration and typically begin with words, such as “why,” “how,” or “what,” or phrases, such as “tell me about…” or “help me understand…” For example, an advanced human services professional practitioner, meeting with a service user who is married to an abusive spouse, might ask an open-ended question like, “What is your relationship with your spouse like?,” rather than “When did the physical abuse begin?”

In this Discussion, you will ask open-ended questions to the service user in the case study you were assigned last week.In this Discussion, you will ask open-ended questions to the service user in the case study you were assigned last week.
