Event histories are generated by so-called failure-time processes and take this form. The dependent variable -for example, some social state-is discrete or continuous. Over time it evolves as follows: For finite periods of time (from one calendar date to another) it stays constant at a given value. At a later date, which is a random variable, the dependent variable jumps to a new value. The process evolves in this manner from the calendar date when one change occurs to a later dute when another change occurs. Between the dates of the changes, the dependent vuriable stays constant. Data on such processes typically contain information about (a) the date a sample member entered a social Slate; (b) the date the State later was left, if left; (c) the value of the next state emered; and so an. In analyzing such data, the foci are on what determines the amount of time spent in each state and on what determines the value of the next state entered. This article describes how one can use continuous-time hazard rate models to address these two foci when analyzing event histories.
