<br /><span class="em">Columns P1 to P12 are to be accomplished for all household members regardless of age.</span></p>

<p><span class="em">P8-Religious Affiliation</span>
<br />Religious affiliation refers to a particular system of beliefs, attitudes, emotions, and behaviors constituting man's relationship with the powers and principalities of the universe. Data on this are required for the planning of religion-related and/or -sponsored activities. They may also be used in examining the ethnic characteristics of the population.
<br />Specify the religious affiliation of the member as reported by the respondent on the space provided. Enter the corresponding code in the boxes. Use the codebook as reference.
<br />If the religious affiliation reported is not among the pre-coded answers provided in the codebook, write code "99".
<br />An infant who is not yet baptized must carry the religious affiliation of his/her mother.
<br />Take note that the "Protestant" religion has different denominations; same is true with "other" religions. In case you are in doubt on how to classify a certain religious sect, write the specific religion on the space provided. For Roman Catholics, Protestants, and others who are members of charismatic movements or fellowships and now call themselves as "born again" Christians or charismatics, verify where they are attending religious services. Hence, an El Shaddai follower who still attends to or practices Roman Catholic religious rites should still be considered as a Roman Catholic.</p>

<p>Indigenous peoples (IPs) who practice a traditional religious or belief system may not necessarily belong to any church, unless they have already been converted to a particular religion. If a member of the household, who is an IP, is baptized in any of the formal religions, he/she should be reported as an affiliate of that religion. However, if the IP respondent mentioned that a member of the household believes or has faith in Kabunian, Apo Namalyari, Magbabaya, and so on, which refer to supreme deities in their language, the religious affiliation shall be coded as "96" for Tribal Religion. Tribal religion is characterized by the observance of indigenous rituals, such as, venerating the dead ancestors and invoking divine intercession for good things in life.
