<svar v="EC01A439 EC01A440 EC01A441 EC01A442 EC01A443"><span class="em">Only for women 12 years or age and older</span><br /></svar></p>
<p>The group of questions from number 24 to number 27 should be asked of women 12 years of age and older.</p>
<p>These questions allow us to know the components of demographic change. When asking these questions, take special care when you interview women under 18 and single women. Explain briefly that this information is important for measuring the levels of fertility and mortality, and for that reason it is necessary to obtain it from all women 12 years of age and older.</p>
<p><svar a="all" v="EC01A441 EC01A442"><span class="em">Question 26.- On what date did you have your last son or daughter born alive?</span><br /><br />[There is a picture of question 26 from this section of the enumeration form.]<br /><br />Ask the question and, upon getting a response, record in the appropriate boxes the month and the year of birth of the last son or daughter born alive, even though the child may have died a short time after having been born or may be living in another place.<br /><br />It's possible that the woman being interviewed will not remember the date of birth of her last son or daughter born alive; in these cases, try to help her to remember.<br /><br />[There is a drawing of a mother with a child born in July of 2001. The corresponding information is filled in on the enumeration form.]<br /></svar>
