The book provides non-technical, practical introductions to the concepts and issues relevant to longitudinal analysis. This simulation-based approach is supplemented with real data examples from studies in clinical medicine where the authors have been involved. It brings together leading experts in MTBI, symptom validity assessment, and malingering to provide a thorough and practical guide to the challenging task of assessing the validity of patient presentations after an MTBI. Second, data on household income or expenditure, which are the indicators commonly used to measure wealth, are not routinely collected in DHS surveys. Written by the developers of Stata's widely used survival analysis suite, this book provides the foundation to understand various approaches for analyzing time-to-event data.

Multilevel Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed using a nationally representative sample of 6,029 children from 2,735 mothers aged 15-49 years and nested within 365 communities from the 2003 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey. Like other reviewers, I've scoured the bookstores looking for a good resource to provide a practical approach to conducting a survival analysis, and this book–hands down–is the best resource I have found yet.
