Level of wording is important because a respondent that is embarrassed to admit that they do not know something is likely to give any answer rather than admit they do not know.( Richard, 2003)

For example, "You don't really believe that..." is a leading question that clearly is designed to make a statement of opinion, rather than to engage in true inquiry.( Sharma, 2006)

A loaded question is really two questions phrased as one. The loaded question assumes that the first answer must be true; otherwise, why would someone phrase it that way?

An attorney asks: “Have you stopped beating your wife?”

The two questions in this example really are, “Have you ever beaten your wife?” and “If so, have you stopped?” ...
