In a previous paper Kunert and Qannari (1999) discussed a simple alternative to Generalized Procrustes Analysis to analyze data derived from a sensory profiling study. After simple pre-treatments of the individual data matrices, they propose to merge the data sets together and undergo Principal...

We consider the triangle test with replications, i.e. each assessor is asked repeatedly. A commonly used test statistic for this situation is the sum of all correct assessments, summed over all assessors. Several authors (e.g. o’Mahony, 1982, Brockhoff and Schlich, 1998) argue that the...

The target of our considerations is whether or not we can find significant differences between subgroups of consumers with respect to given hedonic variables. For this purpose a STATISconsensus is computed for each group and the dissimilarities between groups are judged with the help of the...

The analysis of sensory profiling demands skillful statistical methods to account for different variations that are unknown in other statistical appliances. Besides others, these are the different use of the descriptors by the assessors and the different use of the scales. The two most important...

In discrimination tests, two different questions usually arise: First of all, we are interested in deciding whether or not there are product differences at all that might be perceived by the assessors. However, often this is not our most important concern, since the main question is whether or...

A method for calculating a consensus of several data matrices on the same samples using a PCA is based on a mathematical background. We propose a model to describe the data which might be obtained e. g. by means of a free choice profiling or a fixed vocabulary in a sensory profiling framework. A...
