print.jointPenal {frailtypack}R Documentation

Print a Short Summary of parameter estimates of a joint frailty model

Description

Prints a short summary of parameter estimates of a joint frailty model, or more generally an object of class 'frailtyPenal' for joint frailty models.

Usage


## S3 method for class 'jointPenal':
print(x, digits = max(options()$digits - 4, 3), ...)

Arguments

x the result of a call to the jointPenal function
digits number of digits to print
... other unusued arguments

Value

Print, separately for each type of event (recurrent and terminal), the parameter estimates of the survival or hazard functions.

n the number of observations used in the fit.
n.groups the maximum number of groups used in the fit
n.events the number of events observed in the fit
theta variance of the common frailty term
alpha the coefficient associated with the frailty parameter terminal event hazard function
coef the coefficients of the linear predictor, which multiply the columns of the model matrix.
varH the variance matrix of theta and of the coefficients.
varHIH the robust estimation of the variance matrix of theta and of the coefficients.
SE(H) the standard error of the estimaes deduced from the variance matrix of theta and of the coefficients.
SE(HIH) the standard error of the estimaes deduced from the robust estimation of the variance matrix of theta and of the coefficients.
p p-value
