The Explained Variation in Proportional Hazards Regression

SUMMARY Two new measures of the proportion of the variation of possibly censored survival times explained by a given proportional hazards model are presented. It is shown that the previously suggested proportion of explained log likelihood is not a useful measure of predictive precision. The new measures are intuitively appealing and sufficiently simple for routine application.
