Boolean (Is X?)

Boolean is a semantic frame question type that asks 'is X a Y?' and requires an unambiguous yes/no response with justification. Boolean questions frequently appear in Google's People Also Ask (PAA) sections and are generated as sub-queries in AI Search fan-out, particularly in verification decomposition. The answer format should start with a clear 'yes' or 'no', followed by brief justification with data; avoiding hedging is vital.

For example: 'Can leasing be tax-deductible? Yes—operational leasing allows you to deduct 100% VAT from installments, provided the vehicle serves exclusively business purposes (basis: article 86a of VAT law).' In practice, review the PAA section in Google for your Central Entity and create a dedicated FAQ section with boolean-format answers: these become ready-made chunks for citation. AI Search rewards unambiguity. Words like 'maybe', 'perhaps', 'probably' (hedging) disqualify fragments from citation. Boolean questions are particularly important in YMYL industries (finance, health, law), where users seek definitive answers.
