<p>1. In this section there are two questions: number 18 and number 19. Remember that you should ask question 18 of all women who are twelve years old and older.</p>
<p><svar a="all" v="AR70A426"><span class="pg">[p.196]</span><br /><br />5. The last question on the census is number 19. This question will be answered by all of the [persons] of [12] years or older (consult the census form).<br /><br />Ask one question at a time in the indicated order, and when you receive an affirmative response, mark the corresponding box.<br /><br /><span class="pg">[p.197]</span><br /><br />6. How would you place the following answers in the census form next to question number 19?<br /><br />--Single person who lives with her partner under martial condition and in stable condition, without having contracted legal marriage.<br /><div class="i1">[x]1 Consensual union?<br />[]2 Married?<br />[]3 Separated or divorced?<br />[]4 Widow?<br />[]5 Single?<br />[]6 Don't know</div><br /><br />-- Single person who has never been married and also does not live in a consensual union.<br /><div class="i1">[]1 Consensual union?<br />[]2 Married?<br />[]3 Separated or divorced?<br />[]4 Widow?<br />[x]5 Single?<br />[]6 Don't know</div><br /><br /><span class="pg">[p.198]</span><br /><br />7. If you receive this answer:<br />"Three years ago I was widowed and then I remarried; currently I live with my second wife."<br /><br />Would you mark box 2 or 4?: [Box 2]<br /><br /><span class="pg">[p.199]</span><br /><br />8. If in the previous case you mark box number 4 you will be making a mistake, because you should consider the marital status on the day of the census.<br /><br />If another person tells you: "Five years ago I got married, shortly after, I separated from my wife and now I live in a union without contracting legal marriage. For the effects of the census, the marital status is:<br /><div class="i1">[x]1 Consensual union?<br />[]2 Married?<br />[]3 Separated or divorced?</div><br /></svar>
