章节摘录

版权页：   插图：   Another popular graphical method for checking the proportional hazards assumption in the Cox model is using the Arjas(1988)plots.Specifically,the Arjas plots are designed to make direct comparisons between observed and estimated event frequencies without adding a time-dependent variable.Therefore,this method is not based on the estimation of alternative models and only involves parameter estimates already derived from the partial likelihood procedure. According to Arjas(1988),the application of the stratified Cox model is subject to two types of defects:(1)an influential covariate may be deleted from the model(this defect has been discussed in Section 5.5 of this book)and(2)the stratified Cox model is based on the assumption of a common baseline hazard for all individuals,so that the individuals are stratified according to the baseline hazard.These two defects can seriously influence the efficiency of the Cox model,thus making it difficult to perform a graphical check correctly on the validity of the proportionality hypothesis.Accordingly,he proposes to test the pro-portionality assumption directly from the proportional hazard model including all(M+1)covariates. Practically,deriving the Arjas plots can be performed by taking the following steps.First,divide n individuals into K strata of the(M+1)th covariate according to the research interest of a particular study or previous findings.If the(M+1)th covariate is a continuous variable,classify the sample respondents into a few categories according to an existing theory or results from a previous empirical analysis.Second,calculate the estimated cumulative hazard rate at each observed survival time for each stratum using the parameter estimates obtained from the Cox model.Third,compute the cumulative number of actual events at each survival time for each stratum.Fourth,plot the estimated cumulative hazard rate at each actual survival time along the y axis against the corresponding observed cumulative number of events on the x axis for each stratum.Eventually,discrepancies between the estimated cumulative hazard rate and the empirical data can display whether the estimated hazard rates of those stata are scattered randomly or systematically too high or too low.
