Learn how to effectively analyze survival-time data using Stata. This training introduces the concepts of censoring, truncation, hazard rates, and survival functions. Participants will learn how to prepare data for survival analysis, compute descriptive statistics, create life tables, obtain Kaplan–Meier curves, and fit both semiparametric (Cox) regression and parametric regression models. Discover how to set the survival-time characteristics of your dataset just once and then use many of Stata's survival-time estimators and summary statistics commands with those data.
The course will be interactive, use real data, and offer ample opportunity for working exercises to reinforce what is learned. By the end of the course, participants should be able to describe and graph their data, fit an appropriate survival-analysis model in Stata, and interpret the results.
