I would also be very interested in suggestions/references!
The issue of time-dependent weights was discussed in a previous thread ("st: weights for a longitudinal set"; 3-4 November 2011) where the advice seemed to be to use the first weight.
But as I say other suggestions/references would be very useful.
Best wishes
Shaun

Subject: st: Re: weighted time dependent Cox model

Just a follow up question: Is there a way in Stata to handle time dependent weights?

For the data with time dependent weights (within same person), I am getting the following message:

. use http://stat.ubc.ca/~e.karim/dataset2, clear . stset exit [pweight=weight], fail(event) id(id) weight not constant within id r(459);

Any suggestions/references will be highly appreciated. Thanks - Ehsan
