• Water and sanitation• Handwashing• Salt iodization
Upper panel – Completed before
household is contacted
Survey-specific household and cluster numbers
No “real” EA numbers please
“Regions” may be changed to what is used in country
Delete HH8 if Men’s Questionnaire not used, or is used for all men (no selection)
Date may need to be modified later, if re-visit
Customize introductory sentence, based on pre-test
Do not give up – HH9 may still not be final
Lower panel, to be completed after all the household is finalized
With the exception of HH16 and HH17
Delete 13A and 13B if Men’s Questionnaire not used
Record time before asking questions
List of household members important for demographic information, identification of eligible respondents, and indicators
Members: Use definition in your country, usually used in the census
First, vertical: HL2-HL4, the horizontal, questions for each member
May take out HL5, if dates are not well known
HL6A may be taken out if ITN module not used
HL7-HL7B important to identify eligible respondents for other questionnaires – take out HL7A if necessary
“Head” is designated by the respondent
But always start list with head of household
Completed age
HL7-HL7B completed by interviewer
Line numbers are very important, as they are assigned IDs to individuals in survey
HL11-HL14A for orphanhood and living arrangements
Only for those age 0-17
May want to take out HL12A and HL14A, if migration of parents is of no interest
HL15 is used as background information on children
Probe!!!!

Collects information on• Highest level attended
and highest grade completed
• Attendance last year• Attendance this year
Copy names and ages of all household members here
The first part is for all population age 5 and above
“Grade” may be changed to reflect the term used in country
“attendance” and “completion” are important
If non-formal education is common and is of interest, the module needs to be modified on a case by case basis
For household population 5-24 only
References to school years may need to be changed
Only “attendance” here – defined as attendance at any time, which over-estimates real attendance.
This is not enrolment
We need to establish attendance during two consecutive school years
If the survey is conducted between two school years, the “current” school year is the previous school year, and the “previous” school year is the one preceding
Note that preschool is also included here

Child labour and child discipline modules
• Overview:– Child labour module is for children age 5-17– Child discipline module is for children age 1-14
• Collecting information on both modules for all children in these age groups would need long rosters (especially for child labour) and can be very repetitive and time consuming
• One child is selected from the age group 1-17 and information on this child is collected – depending on the age
Administration of modules
• Children age 1-4– Only child discipline module
• Children age 5-14– Both modules
• Children age 15-17– Only child labour module
Random selection of one child
Correct, unbiased selection is critical
List of children age 1-17, tables assigns rank numbers
If no household member age 1-17, skip to Household Characteristics module
Known as the Kish table for random selection
Use last digit of household number – can be 0 to 9
Total number of eligible children on the columns
Select the corresponding number from within the table
This is the rank number of the child selected for the modules
If more than 8 children?
Continue with child labour module if child is age 5-17
Module developed in consultation with ILO
Three main parts: Economic activity, hazardous work, and household chores
CL2: Economic activities, including a general question at the end (D)
Activities qualify here even if only one hour
Questions may be customized to reflect common activities
CL4 asked to determine the total number of hours during the last one week
Questions CL5-CL7 are about hazardous work
If at least one is applicable, we skip to CL8, because even one of these hazardous conditions qualifies the child into child labour
CL8-CL9: Activities that are currently considered as economic activity in national accounts, but considered household chores in MICS indicator
CL10-Cl12: Household chores
In all of the module, both the identification of activities and chores, and the amount of time child engaged in these activities and chores is important, as age-specific thresholds are used for the indicator
8.2 Child labour CL Number of children age 5-17 years who are involved in child labour Total number of children age 5-17 years

Continue with child discipline module if child is 1-14 years
Included age 1 for the first time – we have evidence that children as young as age 1 are subjected to some of these disciplinary practices
We are interested in the use of disciplinary practices by any adult household member, during a one month period
Questions developed based on the Parent-Child Tactics Scale
The flow of questions is very important and cannot be changed
Very important to keep the wording of questions
Excellent translation is necessary
Last question is on attitude toward corporal punishment, not practices
If the child or the respondent have been away for the last month….

Household Characteristics
• Socio-cultural groups• Crowding• Physical characteristics of dwelling• Cooking• Solid fuels• Household and personal assets• Land and animal ownership
Household Characteristics
• Much of the information collected here is used for– Background characteristics of the households– Wealth index construction– Indicator (use of solid fuels)
Careful customization needed
Do not need to include many small ethnic groups here, if not necessary
Eventually, a combination of these is used for tabulations
There should not be repetition
Important to capture socio-cultural groups which might have different behaviors
If multi-ethnic households or marriages are common, this may not be sufficient – may need to collect more detailed information in household list, or individual questionnaires
Crowding
Floor, roof and exterior walls are used for wealth index construction, and need to be completed by the interviewer
Prior information, training may be necessary
Customization is needed
Use of solid fuels for cooking used to be an MDG indicator, not any more

Need to add to both lists
Details provided in customization guidelines
Basically, need to come up with a balanced list of items that apply to all types of households, poor, middle income or rich
Change “hectares” if necessary
Add or delete animals – this is farm animals, livestock – not pets
Purpose
• Most of the questions in this module can be used to construct the Wealth index
• Standard background variable of MICS
• Helps to explain differentials and to disaggregate indicators by socioeconomic status
Wealth index
• Information on possession of household assets, dwelling materials, water and sanitation, crowding (and others) are used in principal components analysis and households are categorized into quintiles of wealth
• Popular indicator used by DHS, WB etc to analyze disparities with regard to wealth/poverty
HC8 & HC9 - Add to the list
Each country should add to the list • at least five items of furniture • at least four additional household appliances
• so that the list includes– at least 3 items that even a poor household may have,– at least 3 items that a middle income household may have,– at least 3 items that a high income household may have.
Methodological issues
• Utmost care should be taken in asking questions on assets – the list has to be “balanced”
• Good training should be given to interviewers to easily recognize floor, roof, wall types – pictorials could be used
Insecticide Treated Nets and Indoor Residual Spraying
• To be used in malarious countries only• It is possible to use the modules in specific areas, if
parts of the country are not malarious• Depending on the availability and programs in the
country, the type of nets will need to be customized – need to insert names of brands available
• Need to do strong training, with samples, pictorials• For the TN module, we use a roster for bednets
We begin by asking about the total umber of mosquito nets, so as to build the roster
And ask the respondent to see the nets
Observe each net
Determine ITN status – need to be familiar with net availability, string training needed
Determine use of nets by household members
May be difficult to observe nets
Important to follow questionnaire flow when nets are being observed
Net quality not recorded (holes, quality etc)
If more than 3 nets, additional questionnaire needs to be used
Last part (TN11-TN12) used to establish use of nets the previous night for current use estimates
Need to ensure that members who did not stay in the house the previous night are not included under any net
But visitors should be recorded as “00”
Only to be included if programs exist
Not all malarious countries have IRS programs, and not always nationally
Exclude spraying by household member

Water and Sanitation
• Drinking water and sanitation• Collect information on “improved” sources
– a source that by nature of its construction is adequately protected from outside contamination in particular with fecal matter
– a facility that hygienically separates human waste from human contact
Two questions – second question asked only if the main sources is bottled water
Some customization may be made, if absolutely necessary, but only in the form of sub-response categories
Do not combine categories – for example, protected and unprotected springs, as simply “spring”
If the “trip” to fetch water is more than 30 minutes, it has been shown that people compromise on their daily requirements by collecting less water
Also questions on who fetches the water – that can be used for other reasons (child protection, gender issues)

Handwashing with water and soap is the most cost effective health intervention to reduce both the incidence of diarrhoea and pneumonia in children under five
Measuring behaviour usually ends with poor quality data
Please for handwashing and availability of soap are used as proxies – shown to reduce risk of diarrhoeal diseases
We ask to observe the specific place designated for handwashing, and observe the presence of water and soap – or other cleansing materials
Presence of tap is not sufficient!
In the event that we are not able to observe, we ask to see available in the house
In case there is no designated place for handwashing, and there is only moving kettles, for instance, this is not included in the numerator of the indicator

Before performing the salt iodization test, need to record the time
Iodine deficiency disorder is the world’s leading preventable mental retardation and impaired psychomotor development in young children
Salt is oidized to provide the needed iodine in populations
We test the content of salt used in the household with a simple rapid test kit
Salt is adequately iodized when it contains more tha 15 ppm of potassium iodate or potassium iodide
Separate test kits available – need to know which one to use before ordering
