In this article, we’ll explore different ways you can use yes-or-no questions in your tests.

Ways to use questions with Yes or No answers

These are some of the most popular ways to use yes-or-no questions in quizzes, tests, assessments, or surveys.

Trivia quizzes

Trivia quizzes are all about fun, surprising facts and light-hearted questions that keep people engaged.

A great way to build a trivia quiz is to use simple yes-or-no questions. You can increase the challenge by adding time limits, bonus points, or competitive scoring to keep respondents on their toes.

Here are a few examples of trivia questions with yes-or-no answers:

• Can a snail sleep for three years?
• Can a female canary sing better than a male canary?
• Is it true that an octopus has three hearts?

Friendship quizzes

Yes or no, maybe two simple words, but they can help you find out how much your mate, friend, colleague or BFF knows about you.

Here are some fun questions you can ask your friends. Friends can only respond with a yes or no answer.

• Am I taller than 6 feet?
• Do I believe in ghosts?
• Have I ever held a real snake?

Feedback questions

Yes-or-no questions are an effective way to collect clear, measurable feedback in surveys, especially when you want to avoid ambiguity.

By limiting respondents to just two possible answers, these questions make it easier to respond quickly and decisively, helping you gather focused insights.

Here are a few examples of how you can use yes-or-no questions in surveys:

• When deciding which product to buy, did our site answer your questions?
• Do you reside in the UK?
• Would you repurchase this product?
