Preparing Questions That Are Hard to Fake : Countering Avoids Specific Questions

Preparing Questions That Are Hard to Fake is the direct counter to Avoids Specific Questions: A specific question is answered with an emotional or general statement instead of the specific fact that was actually asked for. Ask specific, follow-up-able questions rather than ones with an easy scripted answer.

Steps

    Follow up on their answer with a related question that requires actually knowing the first answer.

  3. 03

    Notice vague pivots away from the specific back toward the emotional.
