Which of the following is an example of a closed-ended question? What is your opinion on the government use of taxpayer money to
support programs like Social Security? How satisfied or dissatisfied are you with the progress Congress is making toward national gun legislation? Does the government spend too much, too little, or about the right amount of money on military programs? When do you think it is appropriate for the federal government to send food and other aid to foreign countries?
The correct answer is Does the government spend too much, too little, or about the right amount of money on military programs?
A closed ended question is typically a yes or no type question or one where you are giving the person options to choose from to answer the question, you are not allowing them to elaborate or speak freely as an open ended question would allow such as 'what is your opinion'. In the question above you are giving them options to choose from 'too much, too little, or about the right amount' these are examples of closed ended questions.
