Dear Forum Members and Statistics Ballers!
I am currently trying to model a survival function for entrepreneurs, and would like to specifically test the impact of covariates during certain phases of the endeavor. Simply: Does a Covariate have a stronger or weaker effect during any of the phases?
Phase Indicators are dummys, indicating whether or not a phase is active. Other covariates are continuous or categorical and seem to work without the interaction.
My data looks as follows:
My regression model is this:
However, I seem to have made some mistake in the modeling process, as I get this output:
This means none of my interaction covariates captures anything. (I know that some of my direct effect covariates are extremely insignificant, but that is ok …)
Can someone please point out to me where exactly my problem is, and how I might be able to model a multiphase parametric survival model? I have until now been unsuccessful in finding such information.
Thank you very much!
