Correct Answer Explanation
When there are only two possible answers — 'Yes' or 'No', the question is called a Two-Way Question. It is a type of closed-ended (structured) question.
Key Points:
- Closed-ended questions can be two-way (Yes/No) or multiple choice.
- Multiple choice questions are used when more than two answer options are possible.
- Open-ended questions allow free-form responses and are harder to score.
- Closed-ended questions are easy to use, score and codify for analysis.
Why Other Options Are Wrong
- A. Open-ended: These allow individualized free responses.
- B. Multiple choice: These have more than two possible answer options.
- D. Leading questions: These give a clue about how the respondent should answer — a poor question design.
