Interviewer instructions
P - 12 Ethnicity
29. This question refers to the Tribal-Group the person belongs to and in case of Zambians it refers to those who belong to any of the Zambian tribal groups, that is, those belonging to any of the 73 or so indigenous tribes. It is an easy question but can be misunderstood. If a person says his/her parents belong to two different tribes, ask him/her which one he/she identifies himself/herself with. In the case of some Zambians and non-Zambians write the major racial group to which the person belongs, i.e. African, American, Asian or European, then enter the appropriate code in the boxes provided.
