but he/ she may also rare cattle, and poultry. Here you should record the primary economic activity.
The codes for economic activities are presented on the last column of page 3.
A8. Other Economic Activities could be more than one. The questionnaire will allow you to record
maximum two other income sources for each member. If a member has more than 2 activities, please
ask the member to choose two based on the importance of the activity to that member. The codes are
on page 3.
A9. Please ask the Number of Income Sources of each member. This question requires facilitation.
Often members tend to identify only the major income sources (e.g. farming, job, etc.) and forget to
mention the minor ones (poultry rearing, vegetable gardening, etc.). For this study all of them are
equally important.
B. Education
B1. Educational Achievement codes are provided at the bottom of page 4 as code 1. If a member
completed grade 5, then the appropriate code should be ‘4’. If s/he completed grade 4 then the code
would be ‘3’ which is ‘preparatory’.
B2 to B5. These information are required for the member whose age is in between 5 to 18 years. The
codes are provided on the same page at the bottom. Multiple answers are expected for the reasons for
non/ partial attendance.
C. Health, Maternal & Child Care
List all members age 15 years and above from page page 2. Please make sure that the member ID
number matches with page 2.
C2, and C4. The recall period is two weeks. Both of the questions require ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer.
Please use ‘1’ for yes and ‘2’ for no. If the answer in C2 is ‘no’, skip to C6. Similarly, if the answer
in C4 is ‘no’ skip to C6. If the answer in C6 is ‘no’ skip to C8.
C8 to C13. These information are needed from the women members who are currently married age
between 15 and 49 years. For other please skip the questions. Age and sex of the household members
recorded on page 2 will help to identify to whom you should ask these questions.
C11. If a child was aborted or terminated before 7 months of pregnancy, then do not consider that as
child birth.
The answers for C1, C3, C7, and C13 are coded and presented at the bottom of page 5. Code 1
contains health status code. Illness for more than 3 months is considered as Long-term illness while
illness for less than three months is considered as Short-term illness. The question in C13 is ‘who
delivered this child’? The answers are coded under code 4. One of the answer choices is trained
TBAs. TBAs are traditional birth attendants whose work is helping women in childbirth.
D. Infrastructure
D1. Do you own or rent house? If the household either completely or partially owns the house, skip
