Dear useRs,
I am currently fitting an advanced failure time model using Göran
Broström's excellent "eha" library with the "aftreg" command.
My question: How do I interpret the "Overall p-value", that is
reported at the very bottom of the output? I already figured out it
must be a chi-square test, but I am wondering what a p-value < 0.01
means:
Does it mean my model fits the actual data correctly OR does it mean
my model DOES NOT fit the data correctly? In other words: Is it
better to have a small or a large "overall p-value"?
EXAMPLE OUTPUT:
Events 230
Total time at risk 3340
Max. log. likelihood -380.34
LR test statistic 16.7
Degrees of freedom 1
Overall p-value 4.41898e-05
Any advice is highly appreciated!!
Thanks
Thomas
