Thanks Alex. And yes, it does look like the SE of HR, not of ln(HR). That seems a bit odd to me. Given how commonly the hazard rate ratio is reported, the SE of ln(HR) would be useful.

Hazard Rate; or the Survival chapter of the Algorithms PDF if you have the
CD's available. That looks at first glance like an SE for the hazard rate
and not log(hazard rate).

Hazard rate & SE in life table
Sent by:
"SPSSX(r) Discussion" <SPSSX-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU>
The last two columns in the life table generated by SURVIVAL show the
hazard
rate and its standard error. I strongly suspect that the SE is actually
for
the natural log of the hazard rate, but have not yet found anything in the
Help to confirm this. Can anyone confirm?
Thanks,
Bruce
