8. What is your sex?

To list the members of the household, you must first ascertain who is the head of household.
Who is the head of household?
The head of household is a member of the household, aged 15 years or over, who is recognized as such by the rest of the members.
Careful! If the person considered to be the head of household did not stay the night before in the housing unit and was or will be recorded elsewhere, a head of household must be chosen from among the persons who actually stayed the night in the housing unit.
To complete the list of household members in section C, it is important to identify the head of household, since the order in which each of the members is listed in question 6.c is determined by their relationship to the head of household.
Important: If the members of the household do not recognize a head of household, the first informant will be the one who must designate the head of household, and the relationships must be established with respect to this person.
[p. 25]
[Question 6.c, household roster]
This list will help you to organize the persons who you must record in order. Invite all persons in the housing unit who must be recorded to participate in the interview. This way, it will be easier for you to complete the questionnaire, and you will have fewer omissions.
Don't forget to include babies, girls, boys and elderly persons.
You must ask and write the full name, relationship with the head of household and sex of all members of the household. Always enter the head of household on the first line.
Remember that only one person can fill the role of head of household.
[Figure omitted, image of question 6.c from the questionnaire]
[Question 6.d, total number of persons]
Important: You must always ask the question and not perform the summation yourself, since this way we will corroborate whether all members of the household have been included.
Ask for and record the total number of persons who make up the household, the number of males, and the number of females. Remember to include babies, girls, boys, elderly persons and visitors who stayed at the housing unit the night before.
[Figure omitted, image of question 6.d from the questionnaire]
[p. 26]
Important: The information that you enter on question 6.d must be transferred to the C2 or C3 summary sheet after conducting all the interviews in the housing unit.
[Figure omitted, image of questions 6.c and 6.d]

Questionnaire section D: "Personal information"
Interview each member of the household using one page for each person. The order in which you must conduct the interviews is the same as you entered on question 6.c. Therefore, person No. 1 will correspond to the head of household, while person No. 2 will be the person you entered on the second row, and so forth.
It is very important that you follow the order as entered on question 6.c for conducting the interviews in section D. This way, you will avoid leaving someone out without being recorded for the census.

[Question 8, sex]
There are responses that seem obvious; however, you must ask the question anyway and record what the informant says in response.
[Figure omitted, image of question 8 from the questionnaire]

All persons should respond to R1 through R7.

When the interviewed person is supplying information of another person (absent resident, minor or someone with communication problems), always ask if they are man or woman. Remember that only the name does not define sex.

Question 2: Sex

This question is very simple you should only mark if the person is Man or Woman.

[Below the text is a form]

Question 2: Sex

This question is basically for categorizing the population since all the other variables are always classified by sex.

[To the right of the text is a form.]

You should ask the question to all persons, especially those who are not present. It is recommended to do it to avoid confusion with names used both for men as well as women, or, with names coming from languages different than Spanish. For example: Carmen, Mercedes, Pilar, Leslie, Inti, Michel, etc.

2. Is he/she a man or woman?

It is recommended to ask this question to avoid confusion with those names mentioned for men and for women, or with the names coming from languages other than Spanish. For example, Carmen, Inti, Leslie, Michel, Natividad, Pilar, Sacramento, etc.

4. Is this person male or female?

4. Sex

Question 4. What is your sex?
This question is very simple, you must only mark if the person is male (box 1) or female (box 3).
If the person is present, do not ask, just mark the correct response; if they are not present, ask if the absent person is male or female. The question refers to the biological sex of the person.

Tips:

• Follow the sequential order of the questions.

• Pay attention to the instructions that are indicated in questions 3 and 9.
• In question 7, do not include the insurance of the IESS.

• The disabilities are of permanent nature and that prevent him/her from doing activities that other people would do without difficulty. If any person mentions that his/her hip hurts, that he/she has to use glasses because he/she no longer sees well, or that he/she must use an apparatus to hear because he/she no longer hears well, these will not be registered as disabilities.
• If a person does not speak (mute person), register alternative 4 and note it in observations.

Question 3a: How old are you in completed years?

Age is the time length (day, month, or year) since birth up to the census date. In this column the correct age of each household member at the time of the population and housing census is filled in full years. Age in full years means age measures beyond year such as months, weeks, days re truncated and only the years are taken and registered. For example if a person's age is 15 years 5 months and 11 days, the age to register will be only 15 years and must not be 15 years 5 months and 11 days. If a child's age is below one year "00" will be entered in column 19 card columns 35-36. If on the other hand a person's age is 98 years and over, only "98" is entered in card column 35-36.

It is expected that there are people who do not know their correct ages or do not want to report their ages. Therefore it is required to make an effort as much as possible without giving up obtaining the correct age. In order to resolve these problems it is appropriate to focus on the following method which is one among others.

It is important to attempt to estimate the respondent's age with reference to historical event that took place at national level or in the neighborhood of the respondent's birth place and based on the response to questions by asking the respondent how old he/she was when the event took place or how long was his/her birth date after the event .For example if the person was born ten years before the eruption of the Ethiopian revolution, then his/her age in 1984 is more or less /1984 - 974/ + 10 = 20 years, and this will be entered. A person's age can be estimated by relating his/her birth year with historical events. For this purpose list of major historical events by year is provided for reference in appendix 1 of this manual.

Some of the household members or people livening in the neighborhood may not know their ages. This time their ages can be estimated in contrast with those who know their ages.
If the age of one of the household member is known correctly, it may be possible to estimate ages of the other members. For example if the age of the first child in the household is known to be 13, it is possible to estimate the mother's age as 29. This is because most of the time mothers are assumed to have their first child at the age of 16 and hence her age would be 13 + 16 = 29. A person's age within a group of people having blood relationship can be estimated by making comparison among them. For example, most of the time mothers give birth every two years. If one of her child is known to be 7 years old then his/her elder one can be 9. Sometimes old people report their age much higher. Their age can be estimated in comparison with the ages of their older children and grandchildren. Hence if one of the household member's age is known then age of other members has to be estimated in relation to the others.

Furthermore if a member's age is known when he got married, his current age can be estimated by considering the number of years he stayed in marriage and also in relation with his children's age.

There are people who prefer or get it easy to report their ages in numbers ending with zero or five. However they don't have to report in figures easy for them or in figures they want but need to try to get their exact ages. In fact ages of certain people can be 10, 15, 20, 25, etc.

Parents can remember birth dates of their children under the age of 10 and the children's age have to be recorded correctly in full years. When determining the child's age becomes difficult a lot of effort has to be made to arrive at the correct ages.

The correct age of each of the household members is entered in column 19 card columns 35-36 after determining their ages on the basis of the above discussion and by making the necessary effort, posing questions towards getting the right age and by making the necessary computation.

17. What is [person]'s sex?

Before collecting information about household members, the definition of head of household and usual household member should be well appreciated. Therefore, the concept of household given in section 2 of chapter two should be appropriately understood.

A. Usual member of a household
A person is said to be a usual member of the household if he/she lives at least six months of the year continuously with the household. In addition, a person is considered to be a usual member of the household if he/she has the intention to live with the household forever even though he/she lived with the household less than six months. Persons who left their household temporarily for less than six months are considered as usual member of their households. However, persons are not considered as usual members of the household if they left their households for six months or more, or who left their households for less than six months but have the intention to leave for more than six months.

The following members of the household are considered usual household members:

B. Visitors
A visitor is any relative or non-relative person who is not a usual member of the household but spent the census night in the household.

C. Head of household
A head of household is a person who is a usual member (male or female) in the household acknowledged as head by the other members. If a man has two or more wives who live in separate households, he will be enumerated as head of the household with his oldest living wife (first married) if he is recognized as head. Other wives will be enumerated with their households as head or member of the households.

Column 13: Serial number of members of the household and visitors
The questionnaire has space to list up to ten members of a household. If the number of the members of the household is greater than ten, it is necessary to use an additional questionnaire. In this situation, the serial numbers given in column 13 (01-10) are corrected as 11, 12, 13, etc. until all members and visitors are listed.

Column 17: Sex
In this column, the sex of each member of the household, "m" for male and "f" for female, should be entered in the card column. The sex of a person should not be determined by guessing based on the name of the person because some names are used for both sexes. Additionally, great care should be taken while writing the members' sexes because, in some areas, males are named by females' name and females are named by males' name.

5. What is [the respondent]'s sex?

In this question, the appropriate code of the sex of each member of the household according to their names listed in question 2 should be shaded. For example, if the member is male, code 1 should be shaded across the name of the member and if the member is female, code 2 should be shaded across the name of the member of the household. The codes of the sexes should not be shaded by guessing the sexes based on the names of the persons because the names of some persons use for box sexes. In addition to this, great care should be taken while shading the codes of the members' sexes because, in some areas, males are named by females' name and females are named by males' name.

Questions 13-15 refer to literacy, level of education and attendance at school and are intended for persons aged seven and older.

The four following questions (16-19) refer to the person's type of economic activity, principal employment, branch of activity, and occupational category. They are also intended for persons aged seven and older.

The last five questions (20-24) cover fertility, and are intended only for females aged 12 and older.

The housing form has enough space to record a maximum of ten person, and so the section is repeated an equal number of times. The information about each person who spends the night in the homeless shelter should be written in the same order as they were listed in section V, "list of persons."

If the homeless shelter has more than ten persons, use an additional form.

Section VII is designed to allow you to record the complete information about one person. Write the person's order number in the grid space according to the list in section V. Spell out completely the first names and complete surnames of each person.

[Image omitted here.]

In these cases, enquire as to whether the individual is male or female unless this has already been indicated by the respondent during the interview.

5.38 Question 3.2 Sex

P-11. What is [the person's] sex?

25.3 Columns P10 and P11: Relationship and sex

- Check that the sex is compatible with relationship; do not assign "male" to persons shown as wives or daughters nor "female" for persons shown as sons or husbands. Take particular care to record the sex of very young children correctly. Often, you will not know whether a baby carried on its mother's back is a boy or a girl. In such cases, you must ask ? do not guess. You should ensure that everybody's sex is recorded.

1. Persons in the household: Who was a member of this household on September 26, 1994?

If there are more than 10 members in the household, use additional questionnaire(s). When this is necessary, tick the box in the bottom right corner and change the person number (1, 2, 3 ... in column a in the questionnaire) to 11, 12, 13 ... in the second questionnaire, 21, 22, 23 ... in the third questionnaire, etc.

Regarding the routines for collective households, see the enumerator's manual.

3. Is [the respondent] male or female?

Question 3: Is [the respondent] male or female?
Sex is one of the most important questions as much analysis of data depends on respondent's sex. It also determines whether certain questions are to be answered or not. Circle the correct response, i.e. either "1" for male or "2" for female.

If the person is around, you can observe the gender without necessarily asking the question, but avoid inferring the gender of the person from names as there are names used by both genders. In case the name is preceded by title, namely "Thao" and "Nang", sex of respondent can readily be determined.

Q4. Sex

Question Q4: Gender
The purpose of the question is to collect information about the gender of the head of the household and all members of the household.
 
The surveyor must write down the answers by highlighting in black on the box as defined in the questionnaire, according to the answer code: 1 is male; 2 is female.

6. Is (the respondent) male or female?

The first two columns must be completed before entries are made anywhere else in the questionnaire.

111. Column 6 Sex
Use the codes given to indicate whether each member of the household is male or female
Code 1 if male Code 2 if female

3. Is (respondent) male or female?

73. Column 3. Sex

(e) Sex: Ask the question "Male or female?" for every person, particularly babies and children, unless you can see for yourself whether the person is male or female. Fill in the appropriate code for sex for each member of the household in column 18. The relevant codes are:

1. All persons

B4. Sex: Fill in the appropriate code for the sex of each member of the household in column B4.
Note: You must not try to infer or assume the sex of a person based on the person's name and clothes he/she is wearing. For example, the name Chikondi could refer to a male or a female person. In some cases, young girls could be wearing shorts and so it is wrong to assume that because one is wearing shorts then it is a boy.

P3. Is [the respondent] male or female?

C4. Sex (Obtain from column B3 or B8.)

Question C4

8. How to fill in the Population Census Questionnaire

P04 - Sex
[figure omitted]

Shade only one box: "M" for Male and "F" for Female

First and last name of the enumerated, family ties or relationships, and sex.

Column 1

The boxes for this column say:
[Depiction of enumeration form; section: "first and last name of the enumerated, family ties or relationships, and sex."]

In order to annotate the data which is asked for in the three boxes of column 1, the enumerator should take into account whether the dwelling is inhabited by one family, or by more than one family. In a case in which there is more than one family in a single dwelling, first write down the data corresponding to all the members of the first family, then the data for all the members of the second family, and so on.

The order that should be followed for writing down the data for each family should be the following:

Write the first and last name of the head of family, who can be a man or a woman, and mark the circle corresponding to "is the head," as well as the circle for their corresponding sex.

Then, write the first and last name of the wife or companion, and then the names of the single sons or daughters, from oldest to youngest, marking with an X the circles corresponding to the family tie or relationship that they have with the head of their family, as well as their sex.

Then write the first and last names of the people who are also related with the head of the family (mother, uncle, mother-in-law, nephew, etc.) and, for these people, mark with an X the circles corresponding to "also related," as well as their sex.

Finally, write the first and last names of the people who inhabit the dwelling and have "no relation" with the head of family (servants, guests, etc.), marking with an X, for these people, the circle corresponding to "no relation," as well as their sex.

Remember that there are some names that are common for both women and men, such as: Guadalupe, Trinidad, Refugio, etc. In these cases, take special care in marking the sex.

[P. 32]

This is the only data that will be written vertically (from top to bottom). The following questions should be asked for each person in a horizontal fashion (from left to right), until you have finished with them, before continuing on to the next.

2. Sex

Do not forget that you must always mark one answer.

When it is a name that can be used by a man or a woman, such as Guadalupe, Asuncion, Concepcion, Refugio, etc., ask the informant if the person is a man or woman.

2.4 Sex
Is (Name) man or woman?

3.2 Sex

With this question the biological sex of people is identified.

If by the name of a person you know that it is a man or a woman, or if you asking the information about the informant, do not ask the question, only mention the name of the person and the sex it corresponds to, as a way of confirmation.

[p. 71]

If a name is not common (Andárani, Yuritzi, Erubey, Éder, among others) or is used both for man and for woman (Guadalupe, Rosario, Inés, Asunción, Refugio, Concepción, Trinidad or others), ask making reference to the name.

Now I am going to ask you about (name): ________
Copy the name of the person from section II

For all persons
[Questions 1-10 are asked of all persons.]

1. Sex

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.]

1. Sex
If by the name of the person you can identify that it deals with a woman or a man, or if you are soliciting the informer's information, don't ask the question, only mention the name of the person and the sex that corresponds to them tied to the age question.

Example:
Sonia is a woman: "How old is she?"

Ask the sex of the person only if the name is uncommon like: Andárani, Yuritzi, Erubey, Éder, or if it is used for man or a woman like: Guadalupe, Rosario, Inés, Asunción, Refugio, Soledad, among others.

[Figures are omitted]

Example: Ana is a woman, how old is she?
Ask the sex question when the name is unusual such as Andárani, Yuritzi, Erubey, Éder, or if the name is used for both men and women such as Guadalupe, Rosario, Inés, Asunción, Refugio, Concepción, Soledad.
Example: Is Refugio a male or female?

Remember that it is very important to record all the residents of the housing unit since the 2020 Population and Housing Census must count all the people living in the country.

3. Gender
When you can identify by the person's name whether they are a woman or a man, or you are asking for the respondent's data, just mention the person's name, confirm the corresponding gender, and ask question 4. age.

Example: Ana is female, how old is she?
When the name is uncommon such as: Andárani, Yuritzi, Erubey, Éder, or if it is used for both men and women: Guadalupe, Rosario, Inés, Asunción, Refugio, Concepción, Soledad, then you do ask the gender question.

Example: Is Refugio a man or a woman?
