Interviewer instructions
G. Information of the people
169. Once the Section "F. Information of the home" is finished, you should ask the population questions to each one of the people who you are to enumerate.
When possible, you should try to make each person provide you with their own information. Only in the case of a person who is absent at the time of your visit, or if it concerns children, will you receive their information from a third party.
In each home, you will enumerate all people who slept in it the night before the "Day of the Census" or who, being absent this night for reasons of work, return to the home during the day. In such form, a doctor who did not sleep in his/her house because of being on guard in a hospital will be enumerated in their home. On the contrary, a traveler who spent many days away from their home will be enumerated in the place slept in during the night before the "Day of the Census."
II. Educational characteristics
[Persons age 6 or older]
The questions of this chapter are for the purpose of knowing the educational level of the population and its specialization in different disciplines, acquired from regular courses.
237. Question no. 10, "What is the highest level that you attend or attended in establishments of regular education?", should be asked to all people who attend or attended educational establishments a one time.
Educational level will be understood to mean each one of the categories included in the Census document. This classification is divided into two parts, A and B.
Look at the Census document. If a person you are enumerating answers part A, do not ask question No. 13. Cross it out with a diagonal line and go to question No. 14. If on the contrary, a person answers part B you should ask question 13 and clearly specify what course [he/she] attends or attended.
238. When a person declares more than one level to you, you should find out which of them is a continuation of the other that would be considered superior. For example, one cannot write "Dentist courses" without having finished high school: nevertheless, it will be "Dentist courses". Remember that in this case you should write down only the highest level finished.
239. If a person attended two equal courses, mark the one considered more important and register the other in the space meant for "Observations".
