Interviewer instructions

This question asks how many sisters the respondent (or the adult for whom he/she is responding) has ever had. It is important that the respondent understands that you are asking about her true biological sisters, that is, all of the females born to the respondent's mother. For example, female cousins or sisters-in-law who may commonly be referred to as 'sister' should not be counted. Emphasize to the respondent that this number should include both her sisters who are living and those who have died. Note that there are no skips in questions MM5-MM9. If the respondent states in MM5 that she/he never had any sisters, you should enter '00' for the following four questions, MM6-MM9.
