Risk models and asdoc

[Moshe Barach]

Hi all,
does anyone know if asdoc is setup to use with any relative risk models? In particular, I am trying to run an exponential hazard model using streg and when I include the "nest" option for asdoc I get the following error:

"depvar may not be a factor variable
r(198);"

Thanks so much.

Hello Moshe Barach
welcome to Statalist. Can you please post your code. Here is an example that does not generate the said error.

webuse kva
stset failtime
streg load bearings, distribution(weibull)
asdoc streg load bearings, distribution(weibull) replace nest

Also try the beta version of asdoc from my site. The new version of asdoc can be installed from my site. Copy and paste the following line in Stata and press enter.

net install asdoc, from(http://fintechprofessor.com) replace

Please note that the above line has to be copied in full. After installation of the new version, then restart Stata.

asdocx is now available

A more powerful and flexible version of asdoc is now available. I call it asdocx. You may like to check the details here

Hi Attaullah,
Thanks for the response. Your example works for me, which made me realize that the issue is actually when the dependant var is a factor variable. Please see the following example:

clear all
webuse kva
xtile load_bin=load,n(4)
stset failtime
streg i.load_bin bearings, distribution(weibull)
asdoc streg i.load_bin bearings, distribution(weibull) replace nest

I think this will generate an error.

Best,
Moshe
