control_coxph: Control function for Cox-PH model

Description

This is an auxiliary function for controlling arguments for Cox-PH model, typically used internally to specify details of Cox-PH model for s_coxph_pairwise(). conf_level refers to Hazard Ratio estimation.

Usage

control_coxph(
  pval_method = c("log-rank", "wald", "likelihood"),
  ties = c("efron", "breslow", "exact"),
  conf_level = 0.95
)

Value

A list of components with the same names as the arguments.

Arguments

pval_method

(string)
p-value method for testing hazard ratio = 1. Default method is "log-rank", can also be set to "wald" or "likelihood".

ties

(string)
string specifying the method for tie handling. Default is "efron", can also be set to "breslow" or "exact". See more in survival::coxph().

conf_level

(proportion)
confidence level of the interval.
