A verification question requires the answer “yes” or “no”. Verification questions are formed according to the following abstract specification: "Is a fact true? Did an event occur?". An example of verification question would be as follows: "Is the answer 5?" [1] Please also compare verification question with the concept of backchannel questions introduced in [2]
Example (1):
-Explainer: "Do you know what we're gonna talk about today?","It's called blockchain." -Explainee: "What's blockchain?" -Explainer: "That's a really good question.","It's actually a way that we can trade.","Do you know what trade is?" -Explainee: Mmm-hmm, it's when you take turns doing something.", It's when you give up most of what you want, right? ---> Verification Question
Example (2):
-Explainer: [Have you ever heard of harmony?] ---> Verification Question -Explainee: ['Yes.'] -Explainer: ['Okay, so what do you think harmony is?'] -Explainee: ["I think basically it's like, one person has the lower", 'voice and then like, girl usually has the higher voice', 'and then they blend it together.']
