Predictions for Bailey-Makeham ------------------------------ ^mpredict , pparm(^parmlist^) ptime(^faillist^)^ where parmlist has one or more elements of the form: varname1^(alpha)^, varname2^(gamma)^, varname3^(delta)^, varname4^(var[alpha])^, varname5^(var[gamma])^, varname6^(var[delta])^, or varname7^(cov[alpha,gamma])^, varname8^(cov[alpha,delta])^, varname9^(cov[gamma,delta])^ and faillist has one or more elements of the form: varname^[^time^]^ In each case, the multiple elements are separated by spaces. For example, in the above Karnofsky example, we might give the command mpredict , pparm(alpha1[alpha] gamma1[gamma] delta1[delta]) ptime(p6[180]) This would create four variables, alpha1, gamma1, delta1, and p6, which would be merged into the current dataset.
