Interviewer instructions

Questions starts from MT5 are only for those respondents who are 15-24 years of age. Therefore, we begin with the skip instruction MT5, to filter out those respondents who are above age 24.

The Internet is a world-wide public computer network. It provides access to a number of communication services including the World Wide Web and carries e-mail, news, entertainment and data files, irrespective of the device used (not assumed to be only via a computer - it may also be by mobile phone, PDA, games machine, digital TV etc.). Access can be via a fixed or mobile network.

Circle '1' if 'Yes', and continue to the next question. If 'No', circle '2' and skip to the next module. It does not matter if the use of internet is in the household the respondent is living or elsewhere.

Note that for those who have said that they have never used a computer or have not used a computer recently, we still ask the questions on internet use, since the respondent may have used the internet by mobile phone, PDA, games machine, digital TV and the like.
