Questions 5 and 6. The purpose of question is to find out the extent to which the respondent feels that she is able to move about with relative freedom in the community in which she resides. Thus, one way to phrase these questions would be to ask if, for instance, if a child in the household were ill, (i) would the woman feel free to go to a doctor without the permission of a male member of her households, and (ii) if she would feel comfortable making this visit on her own.
