The RELIABILITY procedure now supports the following statements that provide further analysis of regression models that are fit by using a MODEL statement:
The EFFECTPLOT statement produces a display of the fitted model and provides options for changing and enhancing the displays.
The ESTIMATE statement provides a mechanism for obtaining custom hypothesis tests.
The LSMEANS statement computes and compares least squares means of fixed effects.
The LSMESTIMATE statement provides a mechanism for obtaining custom hypothesis tests among least squares means.
The SLICE statement provides a general mechanism for performing a partitioned analysis of the least squares means for an interaction.
The STORE statement saves the context and results of the statistical analysis to an item store.
The TEST statement performs F tests for model effects that test Type I, Type II, or Type III hypotheses.
These statements are common to many SAS/STAT® procedures and are fully documented in Chapter 19: Shared Concepts and Topics in SAS/STAT 12.1 User's Guide.
PROC RELIABILITY also provides the following new features:
confidence bands for mean and intensity functions for recurrent events
two-sample log-rank-type test for recurrent events
trend tests for recurrent events parametric models
Duane plots
profile likelihood confidence intervals for survival function
