Interviewer instructions

(P-10) Population group: How would (the person) describe him/herself in terms of population group?
Ask for everybody even if the population group seems obvious.

Remember that persons of different population groups do sometimes form part of the same household, so you cannot assume the population group of any household member.

Accept the response that is given even if you do not agree and under no circumstances may the response be queried.
