Abstract

In most demographic surveys, demographer measures child mortality on the basis of time scale (lifetime) but here we introduce dual time number (lifetime and calendar time) in survival analysis. The twoway Cox proportional hazard model is used to compare as well as relate them with a symmetric maximum likelihood that avoids necessitate of primary scale. Finally, the scrutiny indicates, the time point influence both the lifetime of the children as well as the period when birth occurs.
