Interrogating by PhD Psychologist

There is a default assumption that if you have a PhD in Psychology you know how to ask good questions and this is the consequence:

What my wife and I have found is that it really does not matter if you have a:
MD, LLB, DJ, DD, MBA or PhD
because the evidence as discovered by NSP is that in life:
                                PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW 
HOW TO ASK A GOOD QUESTION.

What is a good question? It is a question that can peal open the true nature of a problem.

In 2013, at Daytona was the Annual Conference of International Association of Counselors and Therapists. 2 NSP presenters, to wit my wife and I, offered this topic to the Conference:
Asking Questions?

We had a class of very senior Counselors and Therapists. When the presentation was completed the moment came for the demonstration of:
A Good Question?

This definition was offered re what is a good question? It is one that can peal open the true nature of a problem. A volunteer offered a problem that the had:
I can never finish my morning appointments on time!

It was offered to everyone in the class to come up with their good question. On the first pass, everyone admitted that by the answer they got they could not solve the problem.

So, based on Richard Bandler's Rule of five:
When you fail to do a thing once, it is an event.
                 Twice it is a coincidence.
                 Three times, it is a bad luck.
                 Four times, it is  fate.
                 Five times, it is YOU!

Each in the class was therefore, given four more chances.

None came up with the GOOD QUESTION. Now you can have a go. If you come up with the good question you will know that you can solve the man's problem.

Based on this evidence, all we had to do was to find four consecutive groups of people and find it they can find the GOOD QUESTION for the problem that emerged.

We failed to find any group that could come up with GOOD QUESTION. 

For this, we are sure that:
People simply do not know how to ask GOOD QUESTIONS.

To have to use torture to get a good answer, is the ultimate validation of what we claim here. In any case, by torture the answer you get is simple not trustworthy.
