Household members
In the survey, interviewers were instructed to include on the household roster all persons who normally live, eat their meals together and share expenses in the dwelling and others who were in the house the night before the interview. In all, 10012 individuals were surveyed. The data from section A01A and A01B were then used to define household members. The person identified as the Head of the household was always considered to be a member. Individuals who shared expenses are members unless they have been absent for more than six of the previous 12 months for reasons other than studies, newly born, recent marriage into the household, return from military service or recently arrived displaced person. Seventy-four individuals failed to qualify as household members. The data set MEMBER.XXX contains the variables PPID, HID, PID to identify the individuals and the variable MEMB which takes the value of 1 for members and the value 0 for non-members. This variable, MEMB, was used to filter out non-household members to calculate household expenditure variables.
