Why is preparing a questionnaire before an interview important?

  1. To keep the witness on track

  2. For legal purposes

  3. To intimidate the witness

  4. To waste time

The correct answer is: To keep the witness on track

Preparing a questionnaire before an interview is important because it helps to keep the witness on track and focused on the relevant information, leading to a more efficient and effective interview process. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not serve the intended purpose of a questionnaire. Creating a questionnaire for legal purposes or to intimidate a witness goes against the ethical and professional standards of conducting an interview. Similarly, a questionnaire is not meant to waste time, but rather to save time by ensuring all necessary information is gathered efficiently.
