Analysing Censored Data On First Birth Interval for Heterogeneous Group of Females
By : R. C. Yadava
Page No: 149-165
Abstract
A model for the time of first conception after marriage with censored data and accounting for heterogeneity in the population with respect to conception rate is proposed. For comparison, the model without accounting for heterogeneity is also discussed. The maximum likelihood estimation procedures are also given. To test the adequacy of the models, these have been applied to real data taken from National Family Health Survey -3 (NFHS-3)
