Print out a fit of Aalen's additive regression model
## S3 method for class 'aareg': print(x, maxtime, test=c("aalen", "nrisk"),scale=1,...)
x |
the result of a call to the aareg function
|
maxtime |
the upper time point to be used in the test for non-zero slope |
test |
the weighting to be used in the test for non-zero slope. The default weights are based on the variance of each coefficient, as a function of time. The alternative weight is proportional to the number of subjects still at risk at each time point. |
scale |
scales the coefficients. For some data sets, the coefficients of the Aalen model will be very small (10-4); this simply multiplies the printed values by a constant, say 1e6, to make the printout easier to read. |

for future methods |
The estimated increments in the coefficient estimates can become quite unstable near the end of follow-up, due to the small number of observations still at risk in a data set. Thus, the test for slope will sometimes be more powerful if this last `tail' is excluded.
the calling argument is returned.
the results of the fit are displayed.
