Although an extended Cox model can accommodate a time- varying covariate, the Cox framework has certain limitations in context of endogenous or continuous time-varying covariates or time-varying covariates measured with error. The joint modeling framework uses a smooth, continuous model of the time-varying co- variate that may more accurately represent its true, underlying longitudinal trajectory. The objective of this thesis is to estimate the association between longitudinal trajectories of gait speed and survival time and to compare estimates of association from separate models (i.e., mixed-effects models and Cox models) and joint models. 000002754 540__ $$fCC BY 000002754 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000002754 650__ $$aSurvival$$026674 000002754 650__ $$aSurvival Analysis$$028823 000002754 650__ $$aWalking$$028911 000002754 650__ $$aAging$$014358 000002754 650__ $$aLongitudinal Studies$$021617 000002754 650__ $$aWalking Speed$$012095 000002754 650__ $$aProportional Hazards Models$$028820 000002754 6531_ $$astatistics and numerical data 000002754 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000002754 692__ $$aDepartment of Public Health and Preventive Medicine$$041444 000002754 7001_ $$aHart, Kyle$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000002754 7201_ $$aLapidus, Jodi$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor$$eMentor 000002754 8564_ $$923d83fdc-99b2-4846-a763-ec98a9cd61d4$$s1542278$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/2754/files/3506_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2eea290403d396fca8fa1b80f93f1414b$$31 000002754 905__ $$a/rest/prod/cr/56/n1/20/cr56n1206 000002754 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:2754$$pstudent-work 000002754 956__ $$aGet Accessible Copy$$uhttps://ohsu.libwizard.com/f/requestaccessibledocument 000002754 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
