Interviewer instructions
7.6. LFQ marital status questions 24-25
The remaining questions are only asked of persons aged 12 years old and above. If you are asking questions for a person 11 years old or less, stop and go to the next person listed on the questionnaire.
Q25 For all ever-married persons: "What was [the respondent's] age at first marriage?" Continuing with the first person listed "Person 01" 12 years old or over who was either married, widowed or divorced, ask question 25.
Do not ask this question of people who have never married.
This question is asking for the person's age when he/she was first married. This may have been before the current marriage. You should therefore be sure to emphasize this point when asking this question.
Write the age at first marriage in the boxes and shade the corresponding numbers.
