What's a word for a group of questions asked together?



Is there a word for a set of questions that are asked together and are related? For example, one asks the question:





Do you go rafting?


And follow up with:




If yes, where?
If no, what do you do instead?


I'd like a word that represents this collection of questions, some of which are meaningless outside of their grouping. Is there such a word?




I have a couple of ideas in mind (linked here so I can limit influencing your opinion).



I'm looking for something much smaller than an interview (which is a larger collection of loosely-related questions), and different from a page (which is a physical arrangement of questions).


Answer



A few options, some admittedly phrases and also various forms:




  • line of questioning

  • questions


  • questioning

  • questionnaire

  • a grilling

  • investigation

  • review

  • debriefing

  • interrogation

  • poll

  • survey
