Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series A, 1994, vol. 157, issue 3, 441-455

Abstract: This paper illustrates the use of the multistate hazards model for transitions and reverse transitions among more than one transient state emerging from follow‐up studies. In addition a simple method is demonstrated for testing the equality of parameters for a transition from one state to another for the first time and subsequent times. This has been applied to contraceptive use dynamics data in Bangladesh.
