THREE STATE MARKOV MODEL: COMPARING THREE PARAMETERIZATIONS OF THE TRANSITION INTENSITY RATE. APPLICATION TO RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS DATA MODELO DE MARKOV DE TRES ESTADOS: COMPARACIÓN DE PARAMETRIZACIONES DE LA TASA DE INTENSIDAD DE TRANSICIÓN. APLICACIÓN A DATOS DE ARTRITIS REUMATOIDEA

We consider a three state model with an absorbing state assuming an underlying Markov process to explain the dependence among observations within subjects. We compare, using a simulation study, three different parameterizations of the transition intensity rate: the first one is based on the Andersen...
