Section IV: Questions regarding individual characteristics (11-42)
This section includes questions (questions 11-42) about the population's social and economic characteristics. In this section, only write the characteristics of those people present at the time and place where the census is being conducted.
Whether or not the household head is at home, be absolutely sure to begin by first writing his/her name and surname on the first line of Section IV, together with all of his/her characteristics (from question 11 to question 42). Take care that the household head's name and surname entered in this section is identical to the one written in in the first line of Section III.
After writing down all of the characteristics of the household head, whether he/she is at home or not, also write down all the characteristics of the other household members at home, beginning from the oldest and proceeding in order of age, from oldest to youngest. After the household members, write onto the dotted line in printed letters, in order of their ages, the names surnames and all the characteristics of those, who, while being present at home, are not household members. Answer questions with a box, by placing an "X" into it.
(Questions 29-42 are for persons age 12 or older)
Fertility status (30 - 33)
(Married, widowed, or divorced women age 12 or older)
(Ask questions 31-33 to women who experienced a live birth [according to] question 30)
(Ask questions 32-33 to "Married", "Widowed", and "Divorced" women age 12-49)
Question 32: Within the last year, how many live children did you give birth to, whether girls or boys, either alive or dead?
(From October 20, 1984 or, in other words, from the previous autumn to the present)
Write in numeric form into the space for the answer, the number of live children (girl, boy) that the woman being administered the census gave birth to since last autumn (October 20, 1984) to the present, whether they be alive or dead.
If there was more than one live birth during the last year (including twins and triplets), write the number the same way. If the woman to whom the census is administrated had no live births during the last year, enter "0" for this question.
