6.5 Section III. Characteristics of the people
In this section the information of the people who inhabit the dwelling, like the sex, age, level of studies, income, among others, is obtained.
Before requesting the information for each person, copy all the names in the spaces designated for them, and for each person start with the phrase: "Now I'm going to ask about (mention the name of the person you previously noted)", so that the informer knows about whom you will be asking the information.
For all persons
[Questions 1-11 are for all persons.]
3. Family relationship
This question seeks to identify the relation that the people inhabiting the dwelling have with the head of the household; for example, husband/wife, son/daughter, grandson/granddaughter, among others.
Don't ask this question if it deals with a collective dwelling.
Ask about the kinship always referring to the head of the household and not with the informer, unless he/she is the head. Remember, there can only be one head per dwelling independent of whether it is a woman or man.
Don't read the question when you refer to the first person on the list, only confirm that he/she is the head and circle code 1; for the rest of the people ask the question including the name.
Circle code 1 for the first person listed when they don't declare a head of the household and ask the kinship questions in relation to him/her.
Investigate if it refers to a partner when they declare the word "Friend". If it is, circle code 2, but if they mention that they are work friends, schoolmates, or roommates, record the aforementioned in the space with the option "Other".
Write on the line of the option, "Other", if what the informer declares does not appear in the options 2 to 7. Like: domestic workers (domestic employee, servant, nanny, majordomo, gardener, chauffeur, or other), including their families.
