Order restricted inference for comparing the cumulative incidence of a competing risk over several populations
[chapter]
2008
Beyond Parametrics in Interdisciplinary Research: Festschrift in Honor of Professor Pranab K. Sen
There is a substantial literature on testing for the equality of the cumulative incidence functions associated with one specific cause in a competing risks setting across several populations against specific or all alternatives. In this paper we propose an asymptotically distribution-free test when the alternative is that the incidence functions are linearly ordered, but not equal. The motivation stems from the fact that in many examples such a linear ordering seems reasonable intuitively and
