Some fairly specific questioning from Caroline Lucas was shut down easily enough.
When we screened for UAs in the migraineurs recruited for the study, some reported UAs spontaneously whereas others reported them only after specific questioning.
Care was taken to ensure that the questions were open and 'non-leading', although more specific questioning was sometimes used to clarify a point made by a participant.
These questions were used during all the interviews as well as specific questioning used for clarification of information.
But under more specific questioning, Cohen declined to commit that he would not pursue public activities in the future.
Although complex or less clear cognitive changes are particularly susceptible to recall biases, the results clearly indicate that certain cortical dysfunctions must be largely underestimated in migraine because specific questioning is not part of the routine clinical evaluation.
On specific questioning, a history of post coital or inter-menstrual bleeding was elicited from one of 5 subjects with invasive cancer, none of 21 with biopsy proven CIN 2+, 13 of 182 with normal or low grade pathology on biopsy, and 18 of 291 subjects for whom no biopsy was taken.
This reflects the nature of quantitative research that is inherently limited by specific questioning.
Similarly, body pain and fatigue were not reported until after specific questioning.
Furthermore, data of adverse events were a mixture of spontaneous reporting and specific questioning.
