Beschreibung

This book is an outgrowth of research done by Dr. Gamt Dijsterhuisfor his doctoral thesis at the University of Leiden. However, thereare also contributions by several other authors, as well, includingEeke van der Burg, John Gower, Pieter Punter, Els van den Broek,and Margo Flipsen.

More specificallythe focus is on the analysis of the reactions to certaincharacteristics of food products, which are in the form of scoresgiven to attributes perceived in the food stimuli; the analyses aremultivariate; and the senses are mainly the senses of smell andtaste. The four main themes covered in the book are: (1) IndividualDifferences, (2) Measurement Levels; (3) Sensory-InstrumentalRelations, and (4) Time-Intensity Data Analysis. The statistical methods discussed include Principle ComponentsAnalysis, Generalized Procrustes Analysis, MultidimensionalScaling, Redundancy Analysis, and Canonical Analysis. This book will be a value to all professionals and studentsworking in the sensory studies
