Abstract
Yin and Ibrahim [Canad. J. Statist. 33 (2005) 559–570] presented a unified class of cure rate models based on a Box–Cox type transformation of the population survival function. Our work provides a probabilistic justification to this transformation by means of the negative binomial distribution.
