Which cueing concept uses words that cue to the solution rather than describing the problem?

• A. Cueing Techniques
• B. Positive-Based Cueing
• C. Hands-On Cueing
• D. Three-Dimensional Cueing

Answer: (B)

This question is about cueing language that points people toward the right action by naming the result they should achieve. Positive-based cueing uses words that cue the solution—the desired outcome or the specific action to take—so participants know exactly what to do to perform correctly. Rather than telling them what to avoid or what’s wrong, it gives them a clear, affirmative target to hit. For example, cues like “drive the floor away to stand tall” or “squeeze the glutes as you lift” direct the brain to the correct movement pattern and make it easier for someone to replicate it in real time.

This is why the positive-based approach fits the question best: it emphasizes the solution-oriented language that guides execution. Other ways of cueing tend to focus on describing the problem or using touch to correct, or they organize cues by movement dimensions rather than by language that leads to the correct outcome, so they don’t match the same instructional intent as clearly.
