Interviewer instructions
Record '1' for 'Male' and '2' for 'Female'. Do not try to guess the sex of the household member from the name provided to you, as this can lead to mistakes. When the respondent is listing everyone in the household, he/she may indicate the sex of the person at the same time, by saying "My sister Mary," for instance. In this case, you do not need to ask the sex of the household member again, since it is already obvious that the person is a female because of the use of the respondent's relationship ('sister') to Mary. However, when a name is mentioned that can be used for both males and females, never use your judgement. Even in cases when you think that the name would most likely be a male's (or a female's) name (such as Shawn, Shannon, Cameron), have the respondent confirm the sex. This column cannot be left blank.
Once you have a complete list of names, relationship codes and sex, ask and record answers to questions about individual persons starting from HL5. Start with the household head on line 01. When you have finished asking all questions (HL5 to HL20) for the person on line 01, continue to the person listed on line 02, until you have completed HL5 to HL20 for all household members.
