Scaled Schoenfeld residual (source code)

= Scaled Schoenfeld residual

A scaled Schoenfeld residual rescales a <Schoenfeld residual> using fitted information so that its trend can diagnose departures from a constant coefficient in a <Cox proportional-hazards model>. A smooth trend against transformed event time estimates a time-dependent coefficient pattern; a flat trend supports the working <proportional hazards assumption test>.
