摘要
The present paper discusses a health situation in which the individuals in a biomedical or an epidemiological cohort study are exposed simultaneously to several risks of death, such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, renal failure, emphysema, etc. and in which the life times of these individuals are independently censored on the right by some censoring mechanism. ARMITAGE'S (1958) simple proportional hazards model is examined with respect to several probability models for the life time and censoring distributions.
