Product-Limit (Kaplan & Meier) Analysis - Analysis Tab

The Analysis tab of the Product-Limit (Kaplan & Meier) Analysis dialog box contains options to specify the respective variables for the analysis.

Option Description
Variables (survival times & censoring indicator) Displays the standard variable selection dialog box for specifying the variables with the survival times and the censoring indicator variable.
Specifying survival times There are three ways to specify survival times. Select one variable with survival times (example, number of weeks surviving), select two variables containing the start and end dates respectively, or select six variables containing dates. Specifically, these variables should contain the month (1 to 12), day (1 to 31), and year when the particular observation began (example, when the patient was admitted to the hospital), and the month, day, and year when the observation was terminated (due to death/failure or censoring, example, when a patient was dismissed from the hospital). While processing the data, Survival Analysis computes the number of days that elapsed between dates and performs the analysis on this measure. Note that if the value of the year is less than 100, Statistica automatically assumes that the year refers to the 20th century; for example, the year 88 is converted to 1988.  
Code for complete responses Enter the codes or text labels that were used in the censoring indicator variable to uniquely identify complete (uncensored) observations in the Code for complete responses field. To review all codes in the respective variable, double-click this field (or press the F2 key on your keyboard) to display the Variable dialog box.
Code for censored responses Enter the codes or text labels that were used in the censoring indicator variable to uniquely identify incomplete (censored) observations in the Code for censored responses field. To review all codes in the respective variable, double-click this field (or press the F2 key on your keyboard) to display the Variable dialog box.
