The JATS Tag Suite does not include any model for questions and answers which is encountered in educational article material. It will also be inherited by the book DTD model, where it is even more commonplace.
Submitter Proposed Solution
A simple model could be defined as follows:

<!ELEMENT question (%sec-opt-title-model;, answer+, explanation?) >
<!ELEMENT answer %sec-opt-title-model; >
<!ELEMENT explanation %sec-opt-title-model; >

along with an attribute @correct="yes|no" to <answer>.
