Is this in 'coxme' or in 'survival'. If in 'survival'
then there are "residuals" functions and when I run the generic
'residuals' function on a coxph fit using the second to last example on
the`coxph` help page (whose formula includes a cluster term) I get no errors.
But you said a 'random cluster', so is this supposed to be a coxme
model? A year and a half ago Terry Therneau was observed on this list to
write[1]:
"Residuals methods for coxme would be an important addition and is on my
to-do list. (But as my wife would point out, so is a bathroom remodel and she
isn't holding her breath.)"
(Can one nominate an 18-month old posting for a fortune? This could be the first
entry in the 'bathroom humor' genre for fortunes.)
I just checked to see if there were a new `residuals.coxme` function in version
2.2-3 but don't see one.
