All the options listed are recommended practices for closing an interview. Decreasing the intensity of questions helps ease the transition out of the interview. Bringing the respondent back to the present helps them adjust after potentially intense or focused discussion. Asking if there's anything else they'd like to add gives the respondent a chance to mention anything not covered. Clarifying future contact sets clear expectations for both parties moving forward.
