Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3">Section F. Characteristics of the persons</span></p>

<p>On the heading of each page of this section write the names of the persons that make up this household one-by-one, maintaining the order established in 'composition of the household' (question 2, section D).</p>

<p>You will begin with head of household [male or female] as person number 1 and will continue with the rest of the members of the household.</p>

<p>Always ask about the spouse or partner of the head of household; never assume that he or she does not exist. Whenever possible, in the case where both are present, you will ask the questions of each person separately.</p>

<p><span class="h3">For all persons</span>
<br />[Questions 1-6 were asked of all persons]</p>

<p><span class="em">Question 4: Where were you born?</span>
<br />You should complement the question by reading the three possible answers:</p>
<div class="i1">A) In this municipality? Mention the name of the municipality where you are enumerating?<br /><br />B) In another municipality in the country?<br /><br />C) In another country?</div><span class="pg">[p. 47]</span></p>

<p>Only one of them should be the response, marking the corresponding box.</p>

<p>If the answer is 'in this municipality', mark the box 'yes' and continue with the next question. If this is not the case, mark the box 'no'.</p>

<p>If the answer is 'in another municipality in the country', write the name of the municipality on the line B.1; the name of the department on the line B.2 and continue with the next question.</p>

<p>If the answer from the person is that he or she was born 'in another country', write the name of the country in which the person was born on the line C.3; write the year of arrival in Honduras in the box that corresponds to space C.4.</p>

<p>It is probable that there are informants that answer some person(s) was or were born in a hospital or in a place that is different from where his or her mother resided at the time. In this case, as place of birth of the person should be registered as the place where the mother resided when the person, about whom the information is being given, was born.
