Abstract :
The paper relates novel theories of one-dimensional measurement and scale type to earlier theories. A paper by J. Barzilai ( see ibid., p.395-400) presents definitions, notation, and further details regarding these new theories. The following areas are covered: inadequacy of the homomorphic model; terminology and notation; scale type; concatenation and Holder´s axioms; and the foundations of decision theory
