HOW TO POP THE QUESTION — THE ART OF ASKING QUESTIONS

Everyone thinks that they can ask a question that will produce an appropriate range of answers. Research suggests the opposite. Reference is made to Dr Belson's study of 29 questions. These gave rise to a wide variety of unintended meanings and hence responses. Dr Belson's research results are reduced to ten hypotheses, and these are translated into an audit context. Finally, action points are provided so that the auditor can improve on his/her performance.
