This area lists and answers Frequently Asked Questions, commonly called an FAQ on the web. If you can't find an answer here, you can consider submitting it to the Sensory Nexus discussion forum. But bear in mind that a question that is too vague or broad can't be answered except with the universal answer: IT DEPENDS. How many panelists do I need for a triangle test? What risks are you willing to take? Should I test using naïve consumers or a trained panel? What's your objective? Should I use a monadic or a monadic sequential design? What are your constraints? You see... it depends!
