Question 7: Self-identification to an indigenous ethnicity
7. Does [name] consider himself/herself indigenous?
[] 1 Yes
[] 2 No (go to 10)
You must ask the question of all the habitual residents of the household, national and foreign, whether present or not, whether in indigenous territory or outside of it.
The response must be noted using the focus on "self-identification of ethnicity" which refers to the self- identification with the customs and traditions of the indigenous cultures.
Because of such you must respect and assign the response offered by the person. For no reason may you assign a response using as a reference the physical appearance of the person. If the person does not consider himself/herself indigenous, you must continue to question 10.
