I am undertaking some survival analysis and want to derive a two-tailed
p-value for each record in the data. Example data:
Sex Age group Observed Expected .. Poisson(two-tailed)
MALE 0-4 years 4 0.05 .. ?
MALE 5-9 year 10 0.025 .. ?
..
..
FEMALE 0-4 3 0.03 .... ?
FEMALE 5-9 12 0.025 .... ?
I know the algebra and can do this in Fortran but in Stata? I need it
for each record and the overall data.
Can anyone please suggest a solution, perhaps a program, that I can
enter Observed and Expected as parameters and derive a two-tailed
p-value for each record?
Thanks and Best Wishes,
Dave
