Interviewer instructions
II. Educational characteristics -- for persons age 6 or older





Question No. 10 "Do you or did you attend any establishment of regular education?"


Attendance at educational establishments is understood to be attendance at an establishment of regular, public or private education, in order to systematically study at the primary, secondary, university or other level either in this country or abroad.

[p. 52]

If a person that you are enumerating tells you that they never attended an educational establishment, do not ask questions 11, 12, 13 and 14; cross them out with a diagonal line and go directly to Chapter III -- Occupational characteristics, if necessary.

If you marked attends or does not attend but attended go to question No. 11.
