Interviewer instructions
27.1. Number of live-born children, Columns 31 through 34
27.1.2. Alive at present, Columns 33 and 34
Alive children at present for any woman who has been married at least once is the number of children she has given birth to who are alive at the time of enumeration. These children might be obtained from one or more marriages. It is also possible that they are living with this household or another one.
For any woman who has been married at least once, for whom you have written the total number of children born alive in columns 31 and 32, ask the number of children living at the present time and write it as a two-digit number based on gender in columns 33 and 34.
- Note that all the numbers written in Columns 33 and 34 should sum to be equal or smaller than that of Columns 31 and 32.
- For those women who have only given birth to boys or girls, in case their children are alive, write the number in the corresponding column (33 or 34) and if they are not alive at the time, mark it as "--". In this case, the column related to the other gender will be left blank.
