Actual exam question for Scrum's PSM-I exam

Question #: 79
Topic #: 5

[All PSM-I Questions]

When must the Product Owner participate in the Dairy Scrum? (choose the best answer)

AWhen the Product Owner is actively working on items on the Sprint Backlog; however, they participate as a Developer

BWhen the Product Owner needs to represent the stakeholders point of view to the Developers

CWhen there are impediments to discuss

DWhen the Scrum Master asks the Product Owner to attend

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

According to the Scrum Guide, the Product Owner must participate in the Daily Scrum when he or she is actively working on items on the Sprint Backlog; however, they participate as a Developer, not as an authority figure. This means that the Product Owner can share progress, plans, and impediments with the other Developers and collaborate with them on delivering value. The other options are not valid reasons for the Product Owner to participate in the Daily Scrum, as they are either irrelevant (such as representing stakeholders or discussing impediments) or inappropriate (such as being asked by the Scrum Master).

A is misleading. POs shouldn't act as Developers in Scrum.

Wait, can the PO really just show up when asked by the Scrum Master? Sounds odd.

C makes sense too, but B feels more essential.

I think B is the best choice. The PO needs to represent stakeholders.

I’m a bit confused about whether the Product Owner needs to attend just because the Scrum Master asks them to. I thought their involvement should be more purposeful.

I feel like the Product Owner's participation is more about communication with the team, especially when stakeholders are involved. That makes me lean towards option B.

I remember a practice question that mentioned the Product Owner's role in discussing impediments, but I can't recall if that's a requirement for attending the Daily Scrum.

I think the Product Owner should definitely be involved when they need to represent the stakeholders' point of view, but I'm not sure if that's the only time.

I'm pretty confident I know the answer to this one. The Product Owner's main responsibility is to represent the stakeholders, so that's the option I'll go with.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. The key is understanding the Product Owner's role in the Scrum process. I'll eliminate the options that don't align with that.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. I'll need to think through the Scrum roles and responsibilities to determine when the Product Owner should participate.

This seems like a straightforward Scrum question. I'll review the options carefully and try to identify the best answer.

Creating a switch condition sounds like a good approach to me. As long as the two actions are truly independent, this should work well and meet the goal of minimizing processing time.

Proof of Stake seems like the obvious choice here. It's designed to be more environmentally friendly and scalable compared to the energy-intensive Proof of Work. I'll go with that.

I think the Product Owner should not participate as a Developer, as their main role is to represent the stakeholders and prioritize the backlog.

I believe the Product Owner should also participate when there are impediments to discuss, so they can help prioritize and address any issues that may arise.

I agree with Detra. It's important for the Product Owner to provide input from the stakeholders to ensure the team is aligned with the project goals.

Option C makes the most sense to me. If there are impediments, the Product Owner should be there to help unblock the team and keep the project moving forward.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that 'Dairy Scrum' part. Is this like a meeting where we all churn butter or something? Anyway, I'd go with option B - the Product Owner should be there to give the dev team the stakeholder's perspective.

I think the Product Owner should participate in the Dairy Scrum whenever they have valuable input to provide, not just when the Scrum Master tells them to. It's their responsibility to represent the stakeholders' needs.
