Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3">6.5 Section III. Characteristics of the people</span></p>
<p>In this section the information of the people who inhabit the dwelling, like the sex, age, level of studies, income, among others, is obtained.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p><svar a="all" v="MX10A404 MX10A405"><span class="em">3. Family relationship</span><br />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.<br /><br />Don't ask this question if it deals with a collective dwelling.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />Investigate if it refers to a partner when they declare the word "Friend".
