Interviewer instructions
Question P-15 -- Father alive
This question works in exactly in the same way as the previous question.
P-15 "Is (the person's) own biological father still alive?"
Again we do not mean stepfather or father by adoption.
Dot one alternative -- "Yes", "No" or "Don't know". Answer "Don't know" only if nobody in the household can help you to find the correct answer.
If "No" or "Don't know" skip P-15a and go to P-16. If "Yes" go to Question P-15a.
P-15a "Who in this household is (the person's) father?"
[P. 46]
If the person's father is a member of this household, give the row number of the father in the appropriate space.
If the person's father does not live in the household write "99".
