Three-way decisions, as a better way than two-way decisions, has played an important role in many fields. As an extension of semiconcept, preconcept constitutes a new approach for data analysis. In contrast to preconcept, formal concept or semiconcept are too conservative about dealing with data. Hence, we want to further apply three-way decisions to preconcept. In this work, we introduce three-way preconcept by an example. This new notion combines preconcept with the assistant of three-way decisions. After that, we attain a generalized double Boolean algebra consisting of three-way preconcept. Furthermore, we give two form operators, approximation operators from lattice and set equivalence relation approximation operators, respectively. Finally, we present a conclusion with some summary and future issues that need to be addressed.
