st: literature on discrete duration analysis in STATA

[Gijs Dekkers <gd@plan.be>]

Dear all,

I would like to estimate various duration models using the European 
Community Household Panel dataset (ECHP), a paneldata set of eight 
waves. However, I am a STATA-novice, and the on-line lessons of Stephen 
Jenkins (useful as they are) unfortunately are not very elaborate when 
it comes to discrete duration models.

I therefore am looking for literature on how to estimate discrete 
duration models (preferably discrete competing risk models) and handle 
attrition in STATA. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Gijs
