Rank-hazard plot interpretation

Datamethods Discussion Forum [Unofficial] April 29, 2026

Hi Prof Harrell,

What is your rationale for using a non-equally spaced y-axis in the rank hazard plot, and how do you address the concern that this may introduce visual distortion?

Many thanks in advance.

The two figures below are for comparison: one was generated using the rankhazardplot function, and the other was produced using my code with an equally spaced y-axis, based on the same underlying approach.
