Interviewer instructions
Question 203: Sex
Ask for confirmation of the sex of the household member and mark the appropriate code. Even though sex was asked when recording the List of Household Members Columns (4) and Column (5), Q203 must be answered. If a different answer is given, ask again which answer is correct and make the adjustment.
It is possible that the respondent objects that the question is asked again. Tell the respondent the truth; say "I'm very sorry; I am only confirming the prior answer to make sure there are no mistakes in recording the sex of the members of the household."
