I would like to talk with you about another subject - family planning. Are you pregnant now?
Interviewer instructions
The module should be administered to all women aged 15-49 years (including women age 15 and age 49). These questions deal with private behaviour and attitudes. They are designed to collect the basic information needed to estimate contraceptive prevalence rates and types of methods used. Survey Coordinators: Each country coordinator will need to make decisions about how to introduce these questions. A suitable introduction should be provided to fieldworkers. Interviewers need to be especially skilled in bringing up these sensitive topics. As noted earlier, Interviewers should always be female. Male interviewers should not be employed to ask women these questions. Survey Coordinators: Some countries may want to ask these questions on contraception only to women who have ever been married. In such cases, you may want to introduce a filter question before CP1, where the interviewer marks whether the woman has ever been married, and skips to the next module if the answer is 'no'. Any other person that may be present during the interview should be asked to leave the interview area to ensure privacy. Even in cases where women are being interviewed alone, they will be reluctant to answer these questions, especially if they sense that you are part of a team that includes males and that her responses may be shared with the males in the team. This question is important because later questions in this module will not need to be asked of pregnant women. A woman who is pregnant does not need to use contraception! Circle the code corresponding to the response given. If she is pregnant, circle '1' and go to the next module. If the woman is unsure or does not know for certain if she is pregnant, circle '8' for 'Unsure or DK'.
