[Basta-users] Individual Survival

[Fernando Colchero]

Hi Carlos,

   Thank you for your interest on the package. I believe that, what you mean by individual survival you would like the estimated lifespans and their 95% credible intervals, isn’t it?

   You can extract those as follows: say that you call your BaSTA output “out”. Although it is a basta object, it works as a list. The estimated ages are in “out$agesQuant”, which is a 3 x ni matrix, where ni is the number of individuals with unknown times of birth and/or death. The columns are therefore the mean and lower and upper 95% credible intervals of the estimated ages at death.

Best,

  Fernando

Subject: [Basta-users] Individual Survival
Hi BaSTA users,

I am a master student at Autonomous University of Madrid studying the
effects of some individual variables on the survival of a rodent
species. I am interested in getting both population survival and
individual survival. I used MultiBasta function and I got that the
model that best fits my database is Weibull-Bathtub.

I’m wondering if there is any function or another way to obtain the
individual survival using BaSta from the estimated parameters. I could
not find any information through the tutorials and code examples about
getting individual survival.

Thanks,

Carlos Molinero
