How to define scale parameters of the Weibull distribution in the poly-k-setting
scalechoice(shape = 3, pm = 0.2, t = 1)
shape |
shape parameter (usually shape=3) |
pm |
a numeric value (0<p<1), probability that an individual dies before time t |
t |
a numeric value, time t |
a single numeric value, giving the scale parameter needed to fulfill pm(t) for the current definition of the Weibull disstribution.
Scale parameter is defined differently than that in Peddada (2005)
