Hi All.
The Y-axis on a survivor function is straightforward to interpret as it is denoted by 1 and represents all of the subjects in the study. However, the values on the Y-axis of a hazard function is not straightforward. I've searched for an interpretation of what these values represent to no avail, so I am hoping someone here can kindly shed some light.
I've added two hazard functions (the first is non-parametric using -sts graph- with the option -kernal(epan2)-, the second is semi-parametric using -stcurve-. The risk to failure is represented by relationship failure (break-up) of married and de facto couples. What do the Y-axis values mean with respect to the hazard rates? In case it is of help, I've included the Cox model output where mrcurr=1 (married) =2 (de facto). Also, what does the hazard ration of 3.60 mean?
