Interviewer instructions

[For persons of all ages]
[Questions 1 to 12a]

Question No. 2: Sex:

The question referring to the sex is asked with the purpose of knowing the composition of the population by sex.

Sex: Biological condition that distinguishes persons as men and women.

Do not go by the name to deduce the sex since there are common names both for men and women. If you find persons with names such as Rosa, Jose, Isabel, Maria, René, Gertrudis, Alex, Giovanni, Leslie, among others, and the person is not there at the time of the interview, ask the respondent, very subtly, if she is referring to a male or a female, and do not assume what the answer is.
Mark with an "X" the corresponding circle in agreement with that marked in the list of occupants (Section IV).
