Abstract
The concepts of primitive ideal and semicocritical module with respect to a torsion theory are studied and related to the structure of torsionfree injective modules. Applications are made to the study of (1) composition series with respect to a torsion theory and (2) the structure of endomorphism rings of torsionfree modules. These results are natural generalizations of the properties of certain modules over (noetherian) rings with Krull dimension.
