摘要：

The Cox proportional hazards model has been widely used for modeling response-time data in educational and psychological research. However, based on the Kaplan-Meier (KM) plots in an empirical example, we find that the proportionality of the hazard ratios does not seem to be an appropriate assumption, and there are considerable differences in survival rates among different items. To overcome such a problem, we consider a class of flexible nonproportional hazards models known as the generalized odds-rate hazards class of regression models. This class is general enough to include several commonly used models, including the proportional hazards model and the proportional odds model, as special cases. A fully Bayesian method is developed for parameter estimation and the deviance information criterion (DIC) and the logarithm of the pseudomarginal likelihood (LPML) are employed for model comparison. Simulation studies are conducted and a detailed analysis of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA)science data is carried out to further illustrate the proposed methodology.
