Interviewer instructions
Section 9 - Where did individual spend Census Night?



5.78 Question 44 - Where Did Individual Spend Census Night?
This is a very sensitive question and care should be taken in asking it, you could ask it like this:
To Respondent: "Were you here on Census Night?"
Of the other members: "Was he/she here on Census Night?"
The question is divided into two parts, Questions 44a and 44b.

5.79 Question 44a - Locally or Abroad

[Image omitted here]

If the individual spent Census Night in the Household, mark This Household. In the case of a watchman, nurse, or shift worker, who would normally have slept in the household on Census Day, mark This Household.
If the individual is a usual resident in the household but slept elsewhere in Jamaica on Census Night, mark Elsewhere in Country.

Similarly, mark Abroad for those persons who are usual residents in the household and who spent Census Night outside of Jamaica.

5.80 Question 44b - Parish in Jamaica

[Image omitted here]

For those individuals scored at either of the first two positions at 44a, that is, This Household or Elsewhere in Country, mark the parish in which the individual spent Census Night.
