true-or-false

Guess-the-veracity format

True-or-false describes a type of question or test format requiring the respondent to judge whether a statement is correct or incorrect: The exam had twenty true-or-false questions.

The format tests recognition rather than recall, making it easier than open-ended questions but vulnerable to lucky guessing.
