INTRODUCTION
Demographic processes play an important role in the
socio-economic development of every country, and
the scientific study of population growth, location,
demographic composition and other important
aspects is important. The population has a decisive role
in the development of society as both a productive
force and a consumer. The demographic situation is at
the center of economic reforms aimed at forming a
stable and efficient economy in the republic.
A unique demographic situation has arisen in
Uzbekistan, which is characterized by an increase in the

decrease in the death rate, and at the same time, the
number of the population of working age is reflected
in its increase.
In the speech to the Oliy Majlis and the people of
Uzbekistan on December 20, 2022, President Shavkat
Mirziyoyev noted that the country's population
exceeded 36 million last years, and 900,000 new
generations are entering every year. We are trying to
create the necessary conditions for each member of
the big and friendly family called Uzbekistan to live a
peaceful and prosperous life. People ask us to build
new schools, kindergartens and hospitals, improve the
quality of education and medicine, solve problems
related to drinking water and electricity, roads and
transport,
increase
the
number
of
jobs,
entrepreneurship. they expect us to create new
opportunities for them, to ensure justice, to eliminate
red tape, bureaucracy and corruption. Therefore, the
principle of "First - the individual, then - the society and
the state" serves as the basis for the transformation of
the new Uzbekistan.
The most accurate and convincing information about
the population is collected through the census, and
they have their own characteristics. The census is a
special scientifically based statistical practice, the
purpose of which is to obtain information about the
number and composition of the population. The census
makes it possible to collect data of a demographic
nature about the absolute entire population of the
country, study these processes and systematize them,
serves as the basis for the development of population
and composition forecasts, as well as other
demographic forecasts.
Based on the results of the census, it will be possible to
make feedback and reflections on the past and
present, as well as forecast the future.
In a number of cases, the census serves as the only
source of information about the age, gender, national
composition, level of education, marital status,
employment and other descriptions of the population.
The census is a large-scale nationwide event that
allows you to take a “photo” of the population of the
country at a certain time, and is a reliable source of
information about the population.
Based on the above, regulatory and legal documents
regulating the field of population registration,
including the Law “On Census” in the Republic of
Uzbekistan, the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of
Uzbekistan on measures to prepare and conduct
Population Registration in the Republic of Uzbekistan,
is a historical normative document that is being
adopted for the first time, laid the base for the
regulation of relations related to the holding of a
census event, which has not been held for many years.
In obtaining reliable and accurate information about
the population during the census, the form of the
census questionnaire, that is, the questions that make
up the questionnaire, their content, place and order of
questions and the design of the questionnaires are

analysis of the final results of the census.
ANALYSIS THEMATIC LITERATURES
Based on the above, scientists from foreign countries
such as N.Kachanova, N.A.Smirnova, Ye.A.Gataulina,
G.S.Solodova, S.A.Smirnov, B.Edmonston, Ch.Schulz,
Constance F.Sitro and the others are interested in
researching the problems of the Census, its program
and the development of forms of the questionnaire.
Scientific, methodological and practical aspects of the
population census, the history of the population
census are partially reflected in the scientific works of
the national scientists such like I.K. Gulyamov, N.B. Tula
and others.
METHODS
In the process of research conducted on the analysis of
the form of the census questionnaire and the
adaptation
of
the
questionnaires
to
the
recommendations of international organizations were
widely used methods such like statistical tables and
graphs, induction and deduction, statistical grouping,
working in groups, interviews, analysis and synthesis,
etc.
The forms of the census questionnaire used during the
pilot population census in November 2021 were
selected as the object of our research.
The purpose of conducting our research is to develop
proposals for improving the forms of the pilot
population census that allows to obtain effective
results of the population census.
The world experience of the population census and the
development of questionnaire forms shows that all
countries that have held this event have been using
several questionnaire forms for the purpose of
registering the population and housing stock.
Questions in questionnaire forms should be close to
each other in terms of content and quantity to allow
mutual comparison [6].

Source: The table was formed by the author as a result of the analysis of the questionnaire forms of the population
census conducted in the CIS countries.
As can be seen from the table above, the questions in
the questionnaire forms of the 2019 population census
of the Republic of Belarus are the questionnaires with
the most questions among the CIS countries. In
addition
to
the
population
census,
these
questionnaires also included questions related to
agriculture, from households living in courtyards to
statistics of Belarus. The rest of the time, registration
in the agricultural sector is carried out using a separate
questionnaire form.
If we analyze by the types of questionnaire forms, the
number of questions in the form of a satellite
questionnaire for the place of residence and household
members is almost the same. According to the form of
the personal questionnaire, the number of questions is
relatively higher in the Republics of Kazakhstan and
Azerbaijan. This is justified by the inclusion of questions
about disabilities in this questionnaire form, which are
not included in other countries. Also, questions about
the monthly income of the population, which are not
found in other countries, have been added in the
questionnaire form of the population census
questionnaire of the Republic of Kazakhstan. It should
be noted that this type of question is not reflected in
the recommendations of the Economic Commission for
Europe of the UN and the Intergovernmental
Statistical Committee of the CIS. The inclusion of this
type of question in the questionnaire means that the
government needs this type of information.
In the above table, in the questionnaires of the
Republics of Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan, the
questions are considered to be the main question, and
the sub-questions and clarifying questions have a
relatively smaller share.
In accordance with the law of the Republic of
Uzbekistan, the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers of

the Republic of Uzbekistan on November 1-25, 2021, a
pilot population census was held in Khojaabad District
of Andijan region, Yukori Chirchik District of Tashkent
region, Khiva City of Khorezm region and Yashnabad
district of Tashkent.
In these processes, the pilot census program,
approved by the decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of
the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 710 of November 11,
2020 on measures to prepare and conduct a census in
the Republic of Uzbekistan, as well as forms of
questionnaire developed on the basis of this program,
are filled out on the basis of a survey among the
population.
The pilot census program consists of 11 sections,
divided into 11 sections according to relevance, each
section is dedicated to specific “topics”. Including: [2]
1.
Questions related to basic demographic indicators;
2.
Questions related to the mechanical movement
and migration of the population;
3.
National characteristics of the population,
questions related to citizenship;
4.
Questions related to the level of education of the
population;
5.
Questions related to the economic status of
household members;
6.
Questions related to the employment of the
population;
7.
Questions about the number of children;
8.
Questions related to housing characteristics;
9.
Questions related to the healthy lifestyle of
household members;
10.
Questions on the collection of personal
information about citizens of foreign countries and
stateless persons who have temporarily arrived in
the Republic of Uzbekistan;
11.
Questions about certain categories of the
population.
The pilot population census program covers all layers
of the population and allows to collect complete
information about the population. This, in turn, creates
the basis for the formation of accurate information
about the number of unemployed in which region of
the republic, the level of provision of kindergartens,
schools, sports facilities, living conditions of the
population, and the state of internal and external
migration of the regions.
The pilot population census forms based on the above-
mentioned questions of the population census
program consist of 5 forms [4]:
1-
shakl “Characteristics of the dwelling and the list of
residents”: This form consists of 3 sections; each
section is designed to receive certain types of
information. In particular, section 1 of this form is called
“Dwelling characteristics” and includes the type of
ownership of the respondent’s place of residence, its
type, the total living area of the residence, the number
of living rooms and their area, the time of construction,
the materials of the external walls, available at the
place of residence they answer questions about

Section 2 reflects the provision of long-term
equipment by household members. In section 3, all
household members living in the residence are
included in the list of the number of households and
household members living in this place. In this, the
kinship relations of the residents to each other, where
each of them lives at the time of the population census,
whether they live permanently or temporarily, and if
there is a temporary absence, the reason and duration
are recorded.
2-
shakl “Personal Questionnaire” is filled out for each
person from 1-
shakl “Characteristics of the dwelling
and the list of residents” and everyone listed as
household members in section 3 of the questionnaire
form. This questionnaire consists of 23 main questions.
It should be noted that these questions are divided into
logical blocks. In particular, questions are asked within
the framework of topics such as basic demographic
indicators, migration indicators, respondents' marital
status, education level, health of the population and
mothers, children, employment and unemployment
rate, economic situation. It should be noted that there
are age-gender limits for the questions. This is of great
importance in the establishment of appropriate logical
controls when entering information about the
population into the database.

temporarily arrived in the Republic of Uzbekistan” is
filled out for persons who live abroad permanently, but
come to the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan at
the time of the population census and are temporarily
living or staying in the territory of the Republic of
Uzbekistan and cause inconvenience to them. This
questionnaire consists of 6 questions in order not to
bother and take up a lot of their time.

Republic of Uzbekistan are temporarily staying in a
place other than their permanent residence, the
number of inhabitants is registered at both these
addresses. A control sheet was developed in order to
prevent it from being exceeded, i.e. adding one person
to the population twice. This checklist consists of 3
sections. In section 1, the respondent’s temporary
residence address is filled in completely, in section 2,
the respondent’s permanent residence address is filled
in completely. Section 3 is filled in by the staff of the

ANALYSIS AND RESULTS
During the pilot population census which held in
November 2021 on the implementation of the decree
of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of
Uzbekistan No. 710 of November 11
, 2020 “On
measures to prepare and conduct a census in the
Republic of Uzbekistan”, the forms of the pilot
population census sheet were filled out approved by
this decision. In this process, a number of
misunderstandings arose from the respondents in
answering the questions in the forms of the
questionnaire. In addition, further improvement of the
questions and their placement in the forms of the
questionnaire will make it more convenient for both
the registrants and the respondents.
In particular, it is necessary to clarify the terms and
concepts related to the registration of households,
houses and families.
Clear instructions are required for the registration of
groups
of
people
living
in
“temporary
accommodation” and collective households.
Respondents had difficulties, misunderstandings and
inconveniences in answering questions 5, 7, 14, 18.
When analyzing the results of the survey process for
filling out questionnaire forms with the population in
the census, a number of questions that cause unclear
or negative attitudes and misunderstandings among
the population, including household members is
advisable to exclude from the forms of the
questionnaire (e.g., providing long-term use of tools by
family members, monthly income of household
members, sports activities of household members,
refugee status) also, depending on the goals of
studying these topics, it allows to organize special
surveys for in-depth study of each topic, to further
increase the coverage and quality of data.
In addition, the forms of the questionnaire, the
concepts and terms used in the guidelines, such as
household, family, population categories that should
be registered should be clearly defined.
When answering questions in the form of a
questionnaire, should be clearly to select only one
answer option (male/female, yes/no) or several answer
options (types of washing facilities, water supply)
determining the possibility of setting also leads to
difficulties. In this regard, in questions with the
possibility of specifying several answer options, it
would be more convenient for the registrants if these
answer options were made round instead of square.
Answer codes should be standardized so that answers
to questions on paper questionnaires can be easily

checked, these values need to be entered later. Values
must conform to a standardized data format. For
example, the answer options for questions about
water supply or toilet facilities are segmented (1.1, 1.2)
and other answer options are given as whole numbers
(2, 3).
Based on the above, it is recommended to review the
following questions and make changes if necessary:
-
Marital status of respondents
-
Refugee status;
-
Other languages that can be spoken;
-
Playing sports;
-
Sources of income for living;
-
Amount of turnover in one month.
Below, we will analyze the form of the 2-shakl
“Personal Questionnaire” of the pilot population
census in the question section.
3.1. In the question “Indicate the number of your father
or mother”, the answer option should
allow to indicate
two persons, or the serial number of one person
should be indicated in the question. In addition, as a
result of this question, in order to identify those who
have lost their breadwinners or orphans, it is necessary
to distinguish by age. In particular, this question should
be answered by persons under 18 years of age.
It is recommended to add the word “permanent” to
the question “5 Have you lived in this settlement since
you were born?” and change it to “Have you lived
permanently in thi
s settlement since you were born” If
the respondent was born in another country, i.e. if the
answer option "other country" was selected in
question 4 “Place of birth”, then this question should
be skipped.
The questionnaire would be easier to use and easier to
digitize (for data entry, editing, and tabulation) if the
additional, auxiliary numbers on the questionnaire
forms were not used. For example, it would be
appropriate to renumber questions 5, 5.1, and 5.2 as
questions 5, 6, and 7.
In the question “6.4
Why did you leave the Republic of
Uzbekistan?” the reasons for the respondent’s
departure from the Republic of Uzbekistan were filled
with wider answer options, the respondents would
have been given more options. In particular, in part III
of the form 1 shakl Characteristics of the dwelling and
the list of residents, it would be appropriate if the
number of households living in this place and the
reasons for temporary non-residence of the
respondents in the list of household members are the
same.
“Are you married?” Respondents to this question may
have doubts about whether their marriage is
registered or sharia marriage and may not answer the
question correctly. It is also recommended to ask one
question about the marital status of the respondents
and add t
he answer option “unmarried/single”.
Alternatively, the current wording of the question
likely does not include widows or divorcees, as such
persons would answer “no” to the first part of the
question and be directed to question 8.

“How many children have you given birth to?” the
question was asked to women aged 15 years and older,
and answers were obtained about the total number of
children born and the number of live births. Some
respondents refused to answer about the number of
children born, especially the number of stillbirths,
because this type of answer caused them great
inconvenience. In this regard, it is appropriate to ask
only the total number of children born in this question.
“Your citizenship?”. In the current version of the
question, the following answers can be given: 1. Citizen
of Uzbekistan 2. Stateless person 3. Citizen of another
state and the registrar must indicate which country the
respondent is a citizen of. In order to indicate all
stateless persons, it is appropriate to add the answer
option “citizenship unknown”. This answer can be
used by those who do not know whether they have
citizenship or not (persons whose citizenship has not
been determined) or those who do not have actual
citizenship (de jure stateless, etc.). As stateless
persons are one of the most difficult groups to
enumerate, registrars should read all the answers to
this question and, if necessary, explain to respondents
what citizenship and non-citizenship mean. Details on
this issue and topic should be included in the
instructions for filling out the census forms.
Sub-question 9.1 of Question 9, asked whether
respondents were forcibly displaced or had refugee
status. This sub-question in the current version of the
questionnaire form is asked to all respondents,
including citizens of Uzbekistan, and it has often been
met with a negative response from respondents. If the
sub-question on refugees in paragraph 9.1 does not
include persons with the citizenship of Uzbekistan, and
if this answer option is selected (“1. Republic
of
Uzbekistan”), instructions will be put to go to the next
question will be appropriate.
The 1951 UN Convention Relating to the Status of
Refugees defines refugees as persons who are outside
their citizinship or place of permanent residence. They
also have a well-founded fear of persecution because
of their race, religion, national origin, membership of a
particular social group or political opinion, and are
unable to avail themselves of state protection or are
unwilling to return there for fear of persecution.
According to the norms of international law, a citizen
of Uzbekistan cannot be a refugee in his country (the
Republic of Uzbekistan), so it is appropriate to ask the
question sub question 9.1 only to foreign citizens and
stateless persons. ladi This approach also reduces the
registrar's workload.
In the question about the respondents “native
language”, if the respondents do not speak a language
other than the one in the given answer options, simply
add the “other” answer option. It should also be
emphasized that collecting this information will be
more useful in creating special programs for people
who speak other languages, for example, TV shows,
educational materials, etc.

To the question of other languages that respondents
can talk about, before that, respondents who
answered “Uzbek” in their question about the native
language of the respondents cannot again choose the
answer option “Uzbek”. Therefore, so that both
questions do not have the same answer, it is
appropriate to include an answer option that means
“does not talk in a language other than the native
language” or “does not talk in any other language” as
an answer to this question.
Questions 13, 13.1, 13.2 related to sports are very
indeterminate, i.e. what is meant by professional
practice of sports, what are the criteria for practicing
sports, and whether simply doing physical exercises by
the respondents is also considered practicing sports. is
considered it is understood that this question is
subjective and answers to questions 1.1 and 13.2 must
be multiple choice. Finally, how is this data used? If
there are organizations based on that data, what can
they learn from that data?, these questions are not very
clear for the eyes in the development of state
programs. In this regard, it is recommended to carry
these questions on a questionnaire. If the decision is
made to leave the question in the questionnaire, the
procedure for asking the question will be changed to
“Do you do physical education exercises?”
It should be clear that the question about your source
of income for living is multiple-choice. If the
respondent has chosen two or more sources of
income, it is of great importance to determine which
income is the “main source of income” among the
selected incomes by what factor, that is, the source
that brings the most money or the source that spends
the main time, and this should be shown as a comment
in the form of a questionnaire.
In addition, it is appropriate to include several more
answer options in this question. In particular, a married
woman may be completely dependent on her
husband's income and may not have other
independent sources of personal life. Also, since this
question is asked to everyone regardless of age, it is
appropriate to include a separate answer option for
children who are under the care of their parents. In this
case, it is recommended to divide or expand answer
option 15 of this question (“under someone’s care,
sponsorship, alimony”) into several answer options as
suggested above.
In the question about household income, enumerators
asked respondents to indicate the exact amount of
their income, not a range. The instructions on this
matter should be much clearer.
In addition, respondents did not want to answer this
question because they were afraid that the
information would be provided to the tax authorities.
In addition, some enumerators did not read out the
answer options to the respondents and the
respondent was asked for the exact amount, after
which the enumerators assigned the answer to the
appropriate answer option. As a result, this question
caused a lot of objections among the respondents, and

in many cases, the answers given by the respondents
were wrong. In this regard, it is recommended to
exclude this question from the forms of the census
questionnaire.
If this question is not removed from the questionnaires
as part of the population census, then the “other”
answer option should be removed and the lower and
upper income limits should be added.
