Thank you very much, Ben. But I also noticed that Prof. Stephen Jenkins
mentioned in that subject, that we simply need to split episode and create
dummy variables, and then include them in the exponential model estimated
using -streg-. As I said in the previous thread that the episodes were
already split into annual spells in the data set, so I wonder if stset and
streg commands are enough to solve the problem.
Thanks.
