Which method is described as the combination of yes/no questions and pointing to pictures for communication?

• A. A combination of yes/no questions and pointing to pictures for communication
• B. Gradual shaping of phonations into phonemes, and then syllables and words
• C. Teaching to operate a computer with a voice synthesizer
• D. Voice therapy for building breathing support

Answer: (A)

This item is about an augmentative and alternative communication approach that uses simple yes/no questions paired with picture pointing. By asking a yes or no question and having the person point to a picture that represents their answer, they can express wants, needs, and preferences without needing to speak. This picture-based method helps build intentional communication and is foundational in picture systems used with individuals who have limited or no spoken language. The other options describe different speech or technology-based strategies that aren’t about using yes/no questions with picture pointing.
