I believe it’s a direct question aimed at getting specific information. I think we discussed this in class as a way to establish a timeline.

I’m a bit confused. Is it considered a factual question or more of an open-ended one? I feel like it could go either way.

I remember practicing similar questions where the focus was on the type of inquiry being made. This might be a leading question since it suggests a specific timeframe.

I think this question is about the type of question Nathaniel is asking. It sounds like a closed-ended question, but I'm not entirely sure.

I think the key here is that the question assumes the person was promoted to manager. That makes it a leading question, since it's guiding the subject's response. Gotta be careful with wording like that during an investigation.

Okay, this seems straightforward. The question is designed to elicit a specific response from the subject, so I'd say it's a leading question. I feel pretty confident about that.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. Is it a leading question or maybe a loaded question? I'll need to think about the difference between those two types.
