Probing questions

Probing questions are a "type of question designed to encourage deeper thinking and elicit detailed information by asking follow-up questions that delve further into a topic, aiming to uncover underlying issues or gain a more comprehensive understanding of a subject; they are typically open-ended, prompting more elaborate responses than simple yes/no answers."

Socratic questions are "open-ended, thought-provoking questions designed to encourage critical thinking and deeper understanding by prompting someone to examine their own assumptions, reasoning, and evidence, rather than providing direct answers; they aim to guide a person to discover knowledge through self-reflection and analysis, often by asking "why," "how," or "what does this mean" related questions."
