Questioning

Questioning is a major form of human thought and interpersonal communication. The term may have the following specific meanings.

Interrogation
Scepticism, a state of uncertainty or doubt, or of challenging a previously-held belief
Questioning (sexuality and gender) - a phase or period where an individual re-assesses their sexual orientation/identity and/or gender identity
Questioning plays a central role in Narrative Therapy

Many writers have suggested a strong connection between questioning and the construction of knowledge, as the more skilled the questioning, the wiser the results of the inquiry. Note McKenzie's article, "A questioning toolkit" at http://questioning.org/Q7/toolkit.html
