Dear list members,
I am working on a large survey dataset which includes more than 100000
individuals. The dataset also includes a variable for probability weights
which represents more than 2,000,000 participants. I am using different
survival techniques for analysis. Of course, with this size of the dataset,
most of the statistical tests for goodness-of-fit (GOF) would fail no matter
which technique I am using. My question to the list is that "is there any
statistical test to evaluate the GOF of a model for large datasets with
survival analysis". A similar test is available for logistic regression
(Archer and Lemeshow, Goodness-of fit test for a logistic regression model
fitted using survey sample data, Stata Journal, 2006, 6:97-105) but I could
not find anything about survival analysis.
Many thanks in advance and my apologies for cross-posting,
Noori
