Interviewer instructions
Do you believe you have the following ancestry?</p>
<p>Ancestry is understood as the ethnic-racial origin that corresponds to a social construction based on the phonotypical differences of people.</p>
<p>You should formulate the question just as it is written and read each option marking "yes" or "no" according to the informant's response.</p>
<p>The criterion for the response is the auto-identification of the people with one or more of the following options:</p>
<ul class="b1">
<li>African or black</li>
<li>Asian or yellow (<span class="lang">amarilla</span>)</li>
<li>White</li>
<li>Indigenous</li>
<li>Other</li>
</ul><p>If the informant declares the option "other" you must specify the corresponding ancestry.</p>
<p>The nationality of the ancestors is not considered ancestry. So that you should not register Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Brazilian, etc.</p>
<p>Which one do you consider the principal ancestry?</p>
<p>If the informant has declared more than one ancestry, consult him/her and record which of the ones signaled is considered primary. It can happen that the informant declares not having a "principal one". In the case you should record the option "None (there is no principal ancestry)".
