What is an example of an objective question in the ORID framework?

• A. What feelings came up for you?
• B. How did this situation impact you?
• C. Can you describe how you came to believe this?
• D. What will you do differently as a result of the experience.

Answer: (C)

In ORID, objective questions pull out observable data, facts, or the evidence underlying a position. Describing how you came to believe something asks for the basis or evidence that supports that belief—the data, reasoning, or information that led to it. That focus on concrete information and justification aligns with the objective strand, rather than exploring feelings, personal impact, or future actions. The other options prompt emotional reflections, personal impact, or planned changes, which fit the reflective or decisional stages instead.
