# True or false quiz question

True of false questions give learners a binary choice, where they will need to decide if a given statement is true or false.

To create a true or false question, enter the question text and select whether the statement is true or false.

Note that if the quiz activity is using [**Adaptive mode**](/17/docs/quiz-activity-settings) (where multiple attempts are allowed but the score is reduced for each incorrect attempt), the **Penalty for each incorrect try** setting for true or false questions will always be set to 1. As there are only two possible answers for a true or false question, this prevents the Learner from receiving any marks on their second attempt.
