Scope

This standard provides a description of quantitative response scales (where response refers to the intensity of perception) and guidelines for their use.
This standard applies to all quantitative evaluations in sensory evaluation, whether they are overall quantitative evaluations or quantitative evaluations of specific attributes, or whether they are objective sensory evaluations or subjective preference sensory evaluations.
The scales covered by this standard are commonly used measurement scales in sensory evaluation.
Note the distinction between the two common usages of the term "scale", namely response scale (see 3.1) and measurement scale (see 3.5).
Note: Application examples are provided in Appendix A.
