After completing Question 1, write the respondent’s AGE in completed years on the day of the
interview. For instance, if the person is aged 4 years and 8 months, write 4 years. If the
respondent does not know his/her age, you must make an effort to estimate his/her age by
using events in his/her life or community as benchmarks. If you have been provided with a
Calendar of Major Events, respondents who have difficulty in remembering their age might
find it helpful to consult this calendar so as to relate the time of their birth to some major event
in the past (for instance, the Earthquake of 1990, Revolution of 2007, year 2017, year 2036,
Popular Movement of 2046, National Referendum Year 2048, National Census Year 2048
and other similar events).
