Descriptive Analysis Testing with Compusense

January 20, 2024

Compusense software provides everything you need to conduct descriptive analysis testing, from initial screening and training through to final analysis and reporting.

Panel Training with FCM

Screen and train panelists efficiently using Compusense's Feedback Calibration Method (FCM), designed to cut training time in half. Test whether panelists can correctly identify attributes and provide immediate feedback on their accuracy. FCM trains panelists on proper line scale usage and specific attributes by delivering instantaneous feedback after they mark the scales.

Panel Alignment

Support group discussions and align your panel using the Results at End feature, which provides visual feedback to each panelist highlighting their responses and optionally showing how they compare to the rest of the panel. This feature supports all descriptive testing types with data displayed numerically, in graphs, or on a line scale.

Questionnaire Building

Easily configure the number of samples, design type, and number of replicates for your test. Sample information appears below for editing as needed. Customize line scales with full flexibility—whether you prefer 0-10 or 0-100 scales. Use Partial Present to control how many samples are evaluated at once or to set up make-up sessions.

Analysis & Reporting

In-app graphing allows you to view results in real-time as they come in, including product performance, PCA, and panelist performance. For more in-depth analysis, generate reports to Word, PowerPoint, or Excel.
