The MAM-CAP table: A new tool for monitoring panel performances
2014
Abstract Assessor performances in sensory analysis are usually represented by three indicators: repeatability, discrimination and agreement. However, assessors can also differ on the range of their scores, the so-called “scaling effect”. Brockhoff, Schlich, and Skovgaard (2013) proposed the mixed assessor model (MAM) which, as the original assessor model ( Brockhoff & Skovgaard, 1994 ), takes this effect into account, but also allows for the product effect to be tested against a new interaction free of the scaling effect. The present paper proposes a unified system for monitoring assessor and panel performances based on the MAM. In addition to the product effect (tested at panel and individ…
Sensory exploration of the freshness sensation in plain yoghurts and yoghurt-like products
2013
WOS: 000324008600021 ; http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0950329313001092; International audience; The term "freshness sensation" is used by consumers for characterizing some plain yoghurts and yoghurt-like products. This study consisted in an investigation of this sensation aiming at determining its underlying sensory attributes. First, two focus groups of consumers were conducted to open up the framework. A set of plain yoghurts and yoghurt-like products, both commercial and experimental, was then subjected to sensory analysis. The samples were sorted by means of a free sorting task, and further scored for the intensity of their freshness sensation and their liking, by 72 …
Internal and external mapping of preferences for commercial lager beers : comparison of hedonic ratings by consumers blind versus with knowledge of b…
2001
Abstract The individual preferences of 170 consumers in six categories of age (20s, 30s, 40s) and gender (men, women) for 24 domestic, imported or specialty lager beers, tasted first blind and then with knowledge of brand and price, were investigated by preference mapping techniques. Internal preference mapping revealed differences in the preferences of consumers, with some consumers preferring domestic or ice beers, and others preferring specialty or imported beers. Hedonic ratings changed significantly from the blind to the informed tasting condition, particularly for consumers in their twenties, thereby documenting the significant role of non-sensory variables in the formulation of a hed…

Uses of change-over designs and repeated measurements in sensory and consumer studies
1993
Abstract The paper illustrates two statistical methods, the design and analysis of sensory experiments taking into account the effects of serving order and previously assessed treatment and the analysis of experiments with time repeated measurements. Change-over design experiments balance both presentation order and carry-over effects. The proper analysis of variance allows the testing of these effects and the estimation of product means adjusted for carry-over effect. Repeated measurements occur when groups are being compared over time. Either a corrected split-plot or a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) with measurements at different times forming the variable should be adopted t…
Traditional process: influence on sensory properties and on consummers' expectation and liking application to "pâté de campagne"
2000
Abstract Sensory profiling of eight ‘pâtes de campagne’, of which four were produced according to a traditional process and four produced according to a non traditional process, was performed by a trained panel. Results revealed some sensory particularities of each process but also sensory differences among the eight products which were not related to the process. Expectations created by two labels, one evoking a traditional and one evoking a non traditional process for ‘pâte de campagne’, were determined for 125 consumers. The impact of these expectations on expectation after visual examination and on liking after tasting was also studied, using the same eight products. The impact of infor…
Could selection tests detect the future performance of descriptive panellists ?
1996
Abstract This paper discusses the appropriateness of screening tests in explaining descriptive panellist performances. It is based on a case study aimed at forming a descriptive panel capable of flavour profiling Camembert cheeses. Eighteen subjects were selected using four sensory tasks evaluating smell sensitivities, olfactory knowledge, odour memory and descriptive ability. Three additional tests were proposed during the 45 hour training to evaluate the recognition memory for odours, the concentration and the verbal creativity abilities. Panellist performances were determined on repeatability and discrimination abilities, and on the complexity of the individual sensory space. Some signif…
Âge, perception chimiosensorielle et préférences alimentaires
2010
Revue non indexée dans le JCR.; National audience; Le vieillissement s’accompagne d’un déclin des sensibilités olfactives et gustatives (sensibilités chimiosensorielles). Or, lorsque nous mangeons, la saveur et l’odeur d’un aliment contribuent largement au plaisir associé à son ingestion. Plusieurs auteurs ont fait l’hypothèse que le déclin des capacités chimiosensorielles observé chez les seniors conduirait à des modifications des préférences alimentaires, celles-ci entraînant à leur tour des changements de l’appétit et de la prise alimentaire. Effectivement, lorsque les préférences sont mesurées à un instant t, les seniors tendent à préférer des aliments ayant une flaveur plus intense. C…
Identification of tasty compounds of cooked cured ham : physico-chemical and sensory approaches
1997
Abstract Tasty compounds from meat have not been studied in depth. The aim of this work was to isolate, identify and quantify tasty compounds from cooked cured ham and to link them to the sensory evaluations of the fractions from which they are extracted. The extraction of the water-soluble fraction from ham was done by an hydraulic press. The crude extract was ultrafiltered and both gel filtration and nanofiltration allowed to obtain edible fractions. Some links between the physicochemical and sensory data have been found, in particular, the umami taste was related to the presence of IMP and monosodium glutamate. The direct influence of proteolytic peptides on this taste is discussed. More…
