Answer 1

One advantage of the interview method of personality assessment is the "ability to pose open-ended questions".

In an interview the person under appraisal must be given impressive scope in "recounting his story." Interviews have both verbal and nonverbal (e.g., gestural) segments. The point of the meeting is to accumulate data, and the sufficiency of the information assembled depends in extensive part on the inquiries asked by the questioner.
