| Macro: | haztest | |
| Description: | calculates the value of the test statistic, the degree of freedom, and the P-value for the likelihood ratio test, Wald's test and the score test for Cox's Proportional Hazards model. |
| Usage: | {testt, val, df, pval} = haztest(data, index) | |
| Input: | ||
| data | n x (p+4) matrix, the first column is the sorted survival time t, followed by the sorted delta, inidcating if censoring has occured, labels l, a column containing the number of ties, and lastly, the sorted covariate matrix z. | |
| index | p x 1 vector, with ith element = 0 when beta[i] = 0 is in the null hypothesis, and 1, otherwise. | |
| Output: | ||
| testt | a table with values of the test statistics, degrees of freedom, and p-values for the likelihood ratio test, Wald's test and the score test. | |
| val | 3 x 1 vector, values of the test statistics. | |
| df | scalar, degree of freedom. | |
| pval | 3 x 1 vector, P-values of the tests. | |

The second parameter of beta is tested to be zero or not by likelihood ratio, Wald's and score tests.
