Abstract
In the framework of standard model of asymptotic statistics we introdu ce a global information in the statistical experiment about the occurr ence of the true parameter in a given set. Basic properties of this in formation are established, including relations to the Kullback and Fis her information. Its applicability in point estimation and testing sta tistical hypotheses is demonstrated.
