Abstract: standsurv is a postestimation command that calculates various standardized (marginal) measures after fitting a parametric survival model. These include standardized survival functions and various functions of standardized survival functions and contrasts of these functions. These include the failure and hazard functions, restricted mean survival time and centiles of the marginal failure function. When standardizing, specific covariates can be held constant and contrasts between different groups can be made, for example differences and ratios. Confidence intervals for all quantities are available. User-defined transformations can be calculated by providing a user-written Mata function. standsurv also allows more than one survival model to be specified in a competing risks setting. This allows calculation of standardized cause-specific cumulative incidence functions and other useful measures. Survival model estimation commands supported include stpm2, strcs, and streg.
