Topics covered include: personal characteristics, literacy/education, mari tal status, labor force, religion, family structure, fertility, source of income, etc. A detailed description of this survey is given in the publication Socio-economic Consequences of the Aging Population: Insights from the Philippine Experience, 1990, Lita Domingo and Imelda Zosa-Feranil. |
