8. Marital status
N.B. The question on marital status is only asked to men over the age of 15 and women over the age of 12.
Marital status is defined by the existence or not of a marital relationship between two people of opposite sex. Considering laws and customs in effect, we distinguish:
Single: all people who have never been married are considered single.
Married: all people joined by law, tradition, or religion to another person of opposite sex are considered married.
Separated: all people who were left by or separated from their spouse, legally or not, but for whom the divorce hasn't been declared are considered separated; nevertheless, a polygamous man separated from one of his spouses remains married.
Divorced: all people who broke all ties (legally or traditional) which joined them to a spouse and who did not remarry are considered divorced, nevertheless, a polygamist who divorced one of his wives remains married.
Widow: All people whose spouse is deceased, and who did not remarry are considered widows, nevertheless, a polygamist with a spouse who died remains married.
Cohabitation: all people who cohabitate with a person of the opposite sex without a civil, traditional, or religious marriage
The codes of the terms of the marital status variable are:
0 = single
1 = man married to 1 spouse or woman married to 1 man having 1 spouse
