In this paper we analyse the problem of the modelling of individual transitions in presence of an incomplete sampling scheme.

This paper presents bayesian inference procedures for the continuous time mover-stayer model applied to individual transition data collected in discrete time. In particular, these methods allow to derive the probability of embeddability of the discrete-time modelling with the continuous-time...

In this paper we analyse the problem of the modelling of individual transitions in presence of an incomplete sampling scheme. This problem is particularly cumbersome when a continuous-time scale is used for the modelling and when the model incorporates unobserved heterogeneity. This problem...

In addition to showing the connection between parallel contingent and noncontingent risk comparison problems, we articulate a method for solving both kinds of problems using the "basis" approach. The basis approach has often been used implicitly, but we argue that there is value to making its...
