Abstract: ggtax is a postestimation command that creates a graph for an easy interpretation of the shape and scale parameters of a parametric survival regression with gamma distribution. When ggtax is ran after streg varlist, distribution(gamma) it takes the shape and scale parameters of the model and plots them with their respective confidence intervals in the taxonomic map of hazard functions for the generalized gamma (GG) distribution (Cox, Schneider and Muñoz; 2007).
