OUTFILE Subcommand (CSCOXREG command)

The OUTFILE subcommand saves an external IBM® SPSS® Statistics data file or previously declared dataset containing the parameter covariance or correlation matrix with parameter estimates, standard errors, significance values, and sampling design degrees of freedom. It also saves the parameter estimates and the parameter covariance matrix in XML format.

  • At least one keyword and a filename are required.
  • The COVB and CORB keywords are mutually exclusive, as are the MODEL and PARAMETER keywords.
  • The filename must be specified in full. CSCOXREG does not supply an extension.

COVB = 'savfile'|'dataset'. Writes the parameter covariance matrix and other statistics to an external IBM SPSS Statistics data file or previously declared dataset.

CORB = 'savfile'|'dataset'. Writes the parameter correlation matrix and other statistics to an external IBM SPSS Statistics data file or previously declared dataset.

MODEL = 'file'. Writes all information needed to predict the survival function, including the parameter estimates and baseline survival function, to a PMML file.

SURVIVAL= 'savfile'|'dataset'. Writes survival table to an external IBM SPSS Statistics data file or previously declared dataset. The file contains the survival function, standard error of the survival function, upper and lower bounds of the confidence interval of the survival function, and the cumulative hazards function for each failure or event time evaluated at the baseline and at the covariate patterns specified on PATTERN. If time-dependent covariates are included in the model, no file is written.
