The general subject of this thesis concerns applied decision theory identified by the decision matrix which combines the controllable alternative strategies and noncontrollable outcome states associated with a given problem environment.

At the outset it is considered expedient to develop conceptual foundations of reference. Hence the following sections are devoted to establishing terminological bases upon which the remainder of this thesis will depend. Having established the framework, the details of which will emerge from analysis.
