ABSTRACT
The multiplicative HR model is the usual proportional hazard rate( PHR) model and the additive HR model is the competing risk model Needless to say , that the PHR model has proved to be of tremendous value in survival analysis. It is clear that in the case of PHR model , the shape and the turning points of the HR remain the same. It will be shown that lifting the HR by a constant does not necessarily mean the reduction of the MRLF by a constant . Similarly, multiplying the HR by a constant ( PHR) model, does not necessarily mean that the MRLF is divided by a constant.
