Definition
In this questionnaire of SUSETI, there is a category for every gender of respondent in which the chosen sample is determined by the number of male and the other household is female. From the sample list, the target respondent is obvious so all that the interviewers have to do is co to copy the list provided into the questionnaire.
In the same column of Respondent Target there is a big writing says “SECTION THAT MUST BE ANSWERED BY THE RESPONDENT TARGET: CR, TR,SW, KSR10-KSR21, PM”. That means the sections mentioned above MUST BE answered by respondent target based on Cov1, and if there are others present during the interview, whether household members, friends, neighbors or anyone else, they are supposed not to help respondent to give the answer. It is better for interviewer to have the interview when respondent is alone. Procedure of replacing respondent target:
If in the respondent target list written that respondent target is a male, then the main target is male household. While if the list mentioned female respondent target, then we should find the female household or the spouse of the household's head.
The main respondent is obliged to answer the sections in bold print and allowed not to answer the others. If we interview according to the target respondent, then we must circle 1. However, if respondent is too busy and can only answer the main section, we must circle 1 as well. And the name in the questionnaire is using the main respondent's name.
If the name who answer the main sections is not the respondent target, then we must write the name of respondent who replace the main respondent and circle the subtitute respondent.
If we are unable to meet the target respondent we must follow the procedure of replacement correctly. For example, if the target respondent of the household is male, let say Sutaryo, then the procedure of the substitution is as follows;
1. another male above 18 years old
2. the wife (spouse) if another male above 18 is not available
3. the other female ART above 18 years old if the wife is not present either
substitute respondent must be belong to the household member
