Repeat greeting if not already read to this respondent:

We are from (country-specific affiliation). We are working on a project concerned with family health and education. I would like to talk to you about (name)'s health and well-being. The interview will take about (number) minutes. All the information we obtain will remain strictly confidential and your answers will never be shared with anyone other than our project team. 

If greeting at the beginning of the household questionnaire has already been read to this woman,  then read the following:

Now I would like to talk to you more about (child's name from UF3)'s health and other topics. This interview will take about (number) minutes. Again, all the information we obtain will remain strictly confidential and your answers will never be shared with anyone other than our project team.

May I start now? 
- Yes, permission is given -> Go to UF12 to record the time and then begin the interview.
- No, permission is not given  -> Complete UF9. Discuss this result with your supervisor.

Result of interview for children under 5:

Codes refer to mother/caretaker.

Repeat greeting if not already read to this mother/primary caretaker: “We are from (country-specific affiliation). We are working on a project concerned with family health and education. I would like to talk to you about (name)'s health and well-being. The interview will take about (number) minutes. All the information we obtain will remain strictly confidential and your answers will never be shared with anyone other than our project team. May I start now?” 

If you are starting to interview the same person that you have completed the household or individual women questionnaire with, you need to read a revised version of the greeting (see below) as the time to complete the questionnaire for under-5 will be different than the household or individual women questionnaire and normally a separate consent is required to do this interview.

Now I would like to talk to you more about (child's name from UF3)'s health and other topics. this interview will take about (number) minutes. Again, all the information we obtain will remain strictly confidential and your answers will never be shared with anyone other than our project team. May I start now?” 

Survey Coordinators: When the questionnaires are customized, replace (country-specific affiliation) with the name of the implementing agency in your country. 

estimate the approximate duration of the under-five's interview during the pre-test and replace (number) with this estimate.

As with similar sentences at the beginning of the Household Questionnaire and Questionnaire for Individual Women, you may change the wording of these introductory sentences as appropriate. You must make sure, however, to include the following when you are introducing yourself: The name of the implementing agency; the topic of the survey; the approximate duration of the interview; the issue of confidentiality; and with whom you would like to speak. 

If permission is given, go to UF12 to record the time and then begin the interview. If the respondent does not agree to continue, complete UF9, thank her/him and go to the next interview. Later, discuss the refusal with your supervisor; you or another person from the team may attempt to interview the respondent for a second time. This will depend on your description of the refusal. However, remember that the respondent's participation in the survey must be on a voluntary basis, and potential respondents must never be forced to participate.

Complete this question once you have concluded the interview. Remember that the code refers to the mother or primary caretaker of the under-five child. Circle the code corresponding to the results of the interview. If the questionnaire is completed, circle '1' for 'Completed'. If you have not been able to contact the mother/primary caretaker after repeated visits, circle '2' for 'Not at home'. If the mother/primary caretaker refuses to be interviewed, circle '3' for 'Refused'. If you were able to only partly complete the questionnaire, circle '4' for 'Partly completed'. If the mother/primary caretaker is incapacitated, circle '5'. If you have not been able to complete this questionnaire for another reason, you should circle '9' for 'Other' and specify the reason in the space provided.
