The Bohmian formulation of quantum mechanics is used in order to describe the measurement process in an intuitive way without a reduction postulate in the framework of a deterministic single system theory. Thereby the motion of the hidden classical particle is chaotic during almost all nontrivial measurement processes. For the correct reproduction of experimental results, it is further essential that the distribution function $P(x)$ of the results of a position measurement is identical with $|\Psi|^2$ of the wavefunction $\Psi$ of the single system under consideration. It is shown that this feature is not an additional assumption, but can be derived strictly from the chaotic motion of a single system during a sequence of measurements, providing a completely deterministic picture of the statistical features of quantum mechanics.
