Interviewer instructions
Cross the correct response, i.e. either "1" for female or "2" for male. If the person is around, you can observe the sex without necessarily asking the question but avoid inferring the sex of the person from names as there are those used by both sexes. In the case of young children, you should not assume their sex by their appearance, e.g. dress.
