Dear Statalist members, I apologize for this reposting. For some reason I
have been unsubscribed for several days.  Here's my question:
I'm using stcox to estimate survival with one binary covariate (tcm), with
the model:
 	stcox tcm
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I was expecting the bootstrap option to produce
a higher standard error and wider ci95.
BOOTSTRAP     	MODEL	HR     CI95          	SE     p
NO			tcm		0.77   0.36, 1.67    	0.30   0.51
YES			tcm 		0.77   0.39, 1.55    	0.27   0.47
Can anybody suggest why that might be the case?
Best wishes,
Michael
