Ask Questions One at a Time

Pattern for effective information gathering without overwhelming users.

[GOAL]

Gather information efficiently while respecting cognitive load limits.

[PROCESS]

When gathering information from users:

  • •Ask at most 1-2 questions at a time to avoid cognitive overload
  • •Propose potential answers when helpful (checkboxes, options, defaults)
  • •Build progressively - use earlier answers to tailor follow-up questions
  • •Give each question a unique number, so they're easy to refer to

[IMPORTANT]

  • •Never dump 5+ questions at once
  • •Propose options when you can anticipate likely answers
  • •Use previous context to make each question more targeted
  • •Number questions for easy reference in responses
