Event history analysis of groups. The findings of an on-going research project
Lelièvre (Éva), Bonvalet (Catherine), Bry (Xavier). - Event history analysis of groups: initial results from an on-going research project The event history approach, which has led to a reformulation of the bases of demographic methodology in terms of analysis of complex stochastic processes (Courgeau and Lelièvre, 1989; 1996), is applied using individual longitudinal data. Ideally, however, each individual itinerary would be situated in as broad a context as possible, and the analysis of individual demographic processes would take account of the close or competing events affecting the individual's contact circle. In event history modelling, a shift from the individual to their entourage, for both data collection and analysis, implies a reconsideration of the choice of entities for longitudinal monitoring. A compromise must be reached between conceptual operationality and analytical consistency, in terms of both theory and models: this article presents the formal developments, then the more applied results from this ongoing research.
