Position of the person in the family (column 11)
Family composition is determined by the position of a member within the family.
Code 1 (husband/wife, father/mother) is entered by the enumerator if a married couple with unmarried children or one of the parents with unmarried children live in the household.
Code 3 (unmarried partner) is entered by the enumerator only if both partners live in the same household.
Code 2 or 4 (child) is entered by the enumerator only for the child that has never been married or does not live in a consensual union and lives together with one or both parents. The child's age is not important.
Code 2 or 4 (child) is entered by the enumerator irrespective of whether the person for whom code 1 (father/mother) or code 3 (unmarried partner) was determined is child's biological father/mother. Code 2 or 4 (child) is also entered by the enumerator for all children of the spouse/unmarried partner and for all adopted children.
If a household member is not a member of any family, the enumerator enters code 5 in column 11. For a person living in the household alone (a single household), the enumerator always enters code 5.
If only a husband and a wife form a family (marriage), the enumerator enters code 1 for both of them.
If unmarried children live together with their parents (father and mother), the enumerator enters code 1 for both parents and code 2 for their children.
If a father or mother lives in a single-parent family with unmarried children, the enumerator enters code 1 for the parent and code 2 for their children.
Unmarried partners are given code 3, irrespective of their marital status, while unmarried children living with them are given code 4.
9 Status of the person in the household
The data are copied by the enumerator from column 9 of the POM/GO List of persons in the household, irrespective of whether they are household members or they are only temporarily present in the household/dwelling.
For a person living in the household alone (a single household), the enumerator always enters code 1.
For persons who according to Guidelines for Enumerators are not entered into the POM/GO List of persons in the household (institutional households), the enumerator enters data directly on the P-3 Census questionnaire for persons so that first it is established whether the institutional household lives in a usual or institutional dwelling.
If an institutional household lives in a usual dwelling, the enumerator enters for the first person who has code 20 as relationship to the household reference person code 5 as status of the person in the household and to all other members in the institutional household code 6.
If an institutional household lives in an institutional dwelling, the enumerator enters for the first person who has code 20 as relationship to the household reference person code 7 as status of the person in the household and to all other members in the institutional household code 8.
For persons who are not household members and who according to Guidelines for Enumerators are not entered into the POM/GO List of persons in the household, the enumerator enters for all persons code 9 directly on the P-3 Census questionnaire for persons.
