The following definitions of family and non-family subunit are specified and created in
RE930.
For family subunit, which consists only of respondent, respondent’s
spouse/partner(RE900= ‘7’ HUS BAND/WIFE/S POUS E or ‘8’ UNMARRIED
PARTNER) , respondent’s dependent children under age 21 (RE900 = 5
DAUGHTER/ADOPTED DAUGHTER, ‘6’ S ON/ADOPTED S ON, ’17’
S TEPDAUGHTER, or ‘18’ S TEPS ON), children of partner under age 21 (RE900 = '30'
DAUGHTER OF {PERS ON LOOPING ON}'s PARTNER, '31' S ON OF {PERS ON
LOOPING ON}'s PARTNER), and children under age 18 in a legal guardian
relationship with the respondent (Respondent was selected as the legal guardian for
child at RE920). If respondent is a proxy, Family S ubunit is the reference person and
the reference person’s spouse/partner (RE900= ‘7’ HUS BAND/WIFE/S POUS E or ‘8’
UNMARRIED PARTNER), reference person’s dependent children under age 21
(RE900 = 5 DAUGHTER/ADOPTED DAUGHTER, ‘6’ S ON/ADOPTED S ON, ’17’
S TEPDAUGHTER, or ‘18’ S TEPS ON), reference person’s partners children under age
21 (RE900 = '30' DAUGHTER OF {PERS ON LOOPING ON}'s PARTNER, '31' S ON OF
{PERS ON LOOPING ON}'s PARTNER), and children under age 18 in a legal guardian
relationship with the reference person (Reference person was selected as the legal
guardian for child at RE920) .
⦁ For all other situations that are not inclusive of the above definition for family subunit,
they would be considered a non-Family S ubunit- all other household members, not part
of Family S ubunit
⦁ For the Family S ubunit ask PP10-PP160, which is to be administered with a forced
choice format for each person on the household roster who is part of the Family
S ubunit. There will always be at least one person in the family subunit- the respondent
at the very least.
For the non-family subunit: ask PP170-PP320 in a select-all-that-apply format for each
person on the household roster who is part of the Non-Family S ubunit. Option of “other
household member” and “no one” are available.
Throughout this section, the {DIS PLAY FAMILY S UBUNIT NAMES } and {DIS PLAY
NON-FAMILY S UBUNIT NAMES } refers to displaying the FIRS T, MIDDLE, LAS T
NAME of each RU member in the corresponding subunit. For the first probe in each
set (PP10 and PP170 respectively), display full names (FIRS T, MIDDLE, LAS T NAME)
for each RU member in the subunit, otherwise only display FIRS T name for each
subsequent probe (PP20-PP160_01-N; PP180-PP325_01-N) for each RU member in
the family or non-family subunit. This is different than other sections. S eparate each
name with a comma and before the last RU member’s name display an "or". Display
“you” rather than the respondent’s name, when respondent’s name is included in the
list.
Display reference person’s name, when the respondent is a proxy.
