On fitting Cox's proportional hazards models to survey data
复杂抽样调查数据的 Cox 比例风险模型拟合
Binder (1992) proposed a method of fitting Cox's proportional hazards to models to survey data with complex sampling designs. He defined the regression parameter of interest as the solution to the partial likelihood score equation based on all the data values of the survey population under study, and developed heuristically a procedure to estimate the regression parameter and the corresponding variance. In this paper, we provide a formal justification of Binder's method.…
