Abstract

We derive three equivalent sufficient conditions for association in time of a finite state semi Markov process in terms of transition probabilities and crude hazard rates. This result generalizes the earlier results of Esary and Proschan (1970)for a binary Markov process and Hjort, Natvig and Funnemark (1985) for a multistate Markov process.
