Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Consensus sensory methods may be full or 'all‐inclusive', determining both the attributes and intensities by consensus, or they may be individualized where panellists only determine attributes by consensus for further rating or where the attributes are determined and the group must reach consensus on the intensity of those attributes. Common to all consensus descriptive methods is the idea that individuals evaluate products and then discuss the attributes and/or intensities to determine an agreed‐on description of the product in question. The consensus method can be used whenever data of a highly descriptive nature are needed. It is particularly well suited to testing where attributes are not known fully in advance, such as in the case of product development or shelf‐life studies. A unique use of the consensus method is in developing 'identity profiles'. In consensus methods, panellists are encouraged to identify, reference and score new attributes during the test.
