Give some examples of open-ended and closed-ended questions and explain when they are useful
What will be an ideal response?
Open-ended questions are non-directive questions allow the patient to answer and elaborate in their own words. Examples include: "What brings you here today?" and "Please tell me about your eating habits." These types of questions are useful in motivational interviewing. Closed-ended questions are directive and may result in a yes/no answer. Examples include "What do you eat for breakfast?" and "Do you put sugar in your coffee?" Closed-ended questions are useful for gathering simple information and are time efficient.
