Recent years have seen a major growth in the development of methods for analyzing survival time data. At the same time, there has been little in the statistical literature to guide researchers in health-related areas who study time to event data. Applied Survival Analysis fills this gap, providing a comprehensive, self-contained introduction to regression modeling used in the analysis of time to event data in epidemiological, biostatistical, and other health-related research.This companion to Applied Logistic Regression provides an introduction to the analysis of time-to-event data, with a focus on the health related studies. Emphasis is placed on the modelling of data and the interpretation of results.
