Probe Picker

follow the thread

A participant has just said something. Four possible follow-ups are on the table — one leading, one closed, one too vague to do anything, and one genuinely open probe anchored to their own words. Pick the one you'd actually ask next.

Context

Which probe would you ask next?

Leading — presumes an answer.  ·  Closed — narrows to yes/no.  ·  Vague — doesn't anchor to anything specific.  ·  Strong open probe — anchors to the participant's own words.
