Overview – Household Questionnaire
• Household Information Panel• Household Listing Form• Education• Water and Sanitation• Household Characteristics• Insecticide Treated Nets• Indoor Residual Spraying• Child Labour• Child Discipline• Handwashing• Salt Iodization
New modules, new topics, new questions Major change in the administration of the questionnaire – interview any adult member of the household
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Overview
• First contact with household• Cover page has two sections:
– Upper section to be completed before household is contacted
– (Most of the) Lower section after household response is known
– In between the two sections, introductory sentences and a question asking permission to start the interview
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
•The combination of cluster and household numbers identifies a unique household in the sample•Anonymous cluster and household numbers recommended (designated by the survey)•Identifying interviewer and supervisor important to monitor and control fieldwork operation•Date may be modified according to time of “final response”
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
•Customizing the cluster number can be problematic if real EA numbers are used•Region will be customized/adapted in each country•Other identification information may be included
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
To be completed after the household list is “completed”, with the exception of HH16 and HH17
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Household Listing Form - Purpose
• Identify eligible persons for administration of modules and questionnaires
• Obtain information on basic characteristics (e.g. Age, sex, household composition) of the survey population – essential for analyses
• Obtain information on orphanhood and living arrangements
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
•Answered by a knowledgeable adult•Vertical:
•Start with head of household•“Head” designated by the respondent•No pre-determined listing of members by relationship structure•List all usual household members, obtaining information on relationship of each member to the head, and sex•Probe
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
•Horizontal:•One household member at a time:•Ask/code questions HL5 to HL14 for each household member•Completed age is sought–Date of birth only in countries where it is known by the large majority of population•HL7-HL7A to be completed by the interviewer•Line numbers become part of the identification variable of an individual: Cluster - Household - Line Numbers

MICS Indicators
• #9.17 - Children’s living arrangements – Proportion among children age 0-17 years not
living with a biological parent
• #9.18 - Prevalence of orphans – Proportion among children age 0-17 years with at
least one dead parent
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Significance and use of indicators• Important especially in countries with high HIV
prevalence, where orphanhood among children is not rare
• Assess whether orphaned children are more disadvantaged than non-orphans (attendance – indicators 9.19 and 9.20 both MDGs)
• Orphans: One or both parents dead• Double orphans: Both parents dead• Caution has to be exercised with numbers of
observations)
