Food Acceptance Testing Methodology

Abstract

This volume reports the proceedings of a symposium held in Chicago in October 1953 and sponsored jointly by the National Research Council and the Quartermaster Food & Container Institute. It contains 14 papers concerned with the measurement of food preferences and other problems related to the sensory testing of food flavors. 'Since acceptance involves human behavior, psychologists… have contributed most to the development of methods (in this field) and the majority of the papers… were prepared by psychologists.' The papers are abstracted separately in this issue. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)
