C. Kam’s Event History / Survival Analysis Notes
I will rely on the following texts and papers:
- Box-Steffensmeier & Jones. 2004. Event History Modeling: A Guide for Social Scientists. Cambridge UP.
- Cleves et. al. 2008. An Introduction to Survival Analysis Using Stata, 2nd Edition. Stata Press.
- Kam, Christopher and Indridi Indridason. 2005. “The Timing of Cabinet Reshuffles in Five Westminster Parliamentary Systems.” Legislative Studies Quarterly XXX: 327-63.
- The last item will be used primarily to illustrate various aspects of event history analysis. Replication data and code can be found at http://www.politics.ubc.ca/index.php?id=9412. (Note: this code was written under older versions of Stata; I’ll update it before the workshop.)
