We all ask and are asked

questions when engaged
in conversation.

Why Ask Questions?

cc: Horia Varlan - https://www.flickr.com/photos/10361931@N06

1. To Obtain Information
The primary function of
a question is to gain
information.
What time is it?

cc: mag3737 - https://www.flickr.com/photos/50318388@N00

. To help maintain control of a conversation

While you are asking questions

you are in control of the
conversation.
Assertive people are more likely
to take control of conversations
attempting to gain the
information they need through
questioning.
cc: Marc Wathieu - https://www.flickr.com/photos/88133570@N00

3. Express an interest in the other person

Questioning allows us to find out

more about the respondent.
this can be useful when
attempting to build rapport and
show empathy or to simply get
to know the other person better.

cc: Leonard J Matthews - https://www.flickr.com/photos/67953162@N00

4. To clarify a point
Questions are commonly used to
clarify something that the
speaker has said.
Questions used as clarification
are essential in reducing
misunderstanding and therefore
more effective communication.
cc: dronir - https://www.flickr.com/photos/96864773@N00

5. To explore the personality

the other person may have
difficulties
to explore the feelings, beliefs,
opinions, ideas and attitudes of the
person being questioned.
to better understand problems that
another person maybe experiencing
like in the example of a doctor
trying to diagnose a patient
cc: hang_in_there - https://www.flickr.com/photos/59632563@N04

6. To test knowledge
Questions are used in all sorts
of quiz, test and exam
situations to ascertain the
knowledge of the respondent.
What is the capital of
Malaysia?

cc: albertogp123 - https://www.flickr.com/photos/57280691@N02

7. To encourage further thought

Questions may be used to
encourage people think about
something more deeply.
Questions can be worded in such
a way as to get the person to
think about a topic in a new way.
Why do you think Paris is the
capital of France?
cc: Stefano Guastalegname - https://www.flickr.com/photos/37537601@N07

8. In group situations
Questioning in group situations can
be very useful for a number of
reasons, to include all members of
the group, to encourage more
discussion of a point, to keep
attention by asking questions without
advance warning.
These examples can be easily related
to a classroom learning at school.

Gathering information is
a basic human activity.

cc: gwilmore - https://www.flickr.com/photos/86013963@N00

We use information to
LEARN, to help us
SOLVE PROBLEMS, to
aid our DECISION
MAKING processes and
to UNDERSTAND EACH
OTHER more clearly.

Questioning is the key.

Without it interpersonal
communications can fail.

Questioning is fundamental to
successful communication.

cc: Maryam Abdulghaffar - https://www.flickr.com/photos/47910063@N06

We find questions and answers

fascinating and entertaining
politicians, reporters,
celebrities and entrepreneurs
are often successful based on
their questioning skills asking
the right questions at the right
time and also answering (or
not) appropriately.
