DECISIONMAKING COMPETENCE AND RISK
Bioethics, 1991Mark Wicclair criticizes Allen Buchanan's and my claim that determining an appropriate level of competence (Wicclair substitutes "decisional capacity" for "competence", the import of which I note briefly below) for health care treatment decisionmaking involves balancing respecting a patient's self-determination and protecting his or her well-being ...

Competency and Risk‐relativity
Bioethics, 2001In this paper I discuss the view that the appropriate concept of competence is a decision‐relative one: that a person may be competent to make one decision but not another. The argument that I present is that neither of the two competing theories supporting the decision‐relative approach, internalism and externalism, can provide a coherent explanation ...

A competing risks model is a model for multiple durations that start at the same point in time for a given subject, where the subject is observed until the first duration is completed and one also observes which of the multiple durations is completed first.

Compartmental models and competing risk
Mathematical Biosciences, 1994General compartmental models are derived using competing risk arguments. When the risk variables are exponential, the results specialize to the standard stationary Markov compartmental model. Iterative methods of solving the fundamental integral equation are given, and the uniqueness of the solution is incidentally established. The analysis is extended

Cumulative Incidence in Competing Risks Data and Competing Risks Regression Analysis
Clinical Cancer Research, 2007Abstract Competing risks occur commonly in medical research. For example, both treatment-related mortality and disease recurrence are important outcomes of interest and well-known competing risks in cancer research. In the analysis of competing risks data, methods of standard survival analysis such as the Kaplan-Meier method for ...

A DYNAMIC COMPETING RISKS MODEL
Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 1999We consider a series system with p components where the failure rate of each component depends on the residual number of defects present. Successive tasks are given to the system with each task completion time independent of each component failure time. Based on the outcomes over a fixed testing period, the asymptotic properties of the estimators

Survival Analysis with Competing Risks and Semi-competing Risks Data
2017Competing risks data arise when study subjects are subject to multiple types of failure events. The competing risks events are terminating, in that the onset of one event precludes the observation of other events. Semi-competing risks data involve a nonterminating event and a terminating event.

NONPARAMETRIC ESTIMATION FOR COMPETING RISKS
Australian Journal of Statistics, 1993SummaryThis paper considers the estimation of the ratio of two scale parameters when the data are censored. It emphasises characteristics of the asymptotic variance under censoring from a practical point of view. The estimator proposed by Padgett & Wei (1982) for the two‐sample scale model is extended to the competing risks model.
