Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">Part V: Instructions on how to question and record information on the census form</span></p>

<p><span class="h3">Part 1: Information about members of the household</span>
<br />Part 1 of the Census form consists of 41 questions, numbered sequentially from Question 1 to Question 41.</p>

<p>The respondent is the head of the household or a person knowledgeable about members of the household. For information on employment and birth history of women, DTV needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and collect information. In addition, for other information about members of the household, if the head of the household or the information provider is not knowledgeable, DTV also needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and record the information.</p>

<p><span class="em">Question 3: Is [the respondent] male or female?</span>
<br />For those who are interviewed face-to-face or are at home when DTV visits for the interview, DTV can easily identify whether the individual is male or female to check the appropriate code box. However, for young children and people who are away, DTV should not rely on "middle name" to infer whether the individual is male or female, DTV must ask the head of the household.</p>

<p>For people with two sexes, DTV relies on DTDT's answers to record information.
