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.
