Abstract
In this section we introduce the decision theoretic basis to our approach to mathematical statistics. We restrict ourselves to the purely measure theoretic version of decision theory. The section contains the fundamental definitions, some interpretations, and some theorems of an introductory nature designed to give a first insight into the theory of comparison of experiments.
