Add a Break Between Samples
Overview
It is a good practice to provide panelists with an opportunity to cleanse their palate if they are tasting and/or smelling samples. In Compusense you have a large selection of Text screens and Time delays to choose from to provide panelists with instructions and timed breaks.
The video below will walk you through a hands-on exercise for setting up a simple time delay that appears after every sample, except for the last one (you wouldn't want to force your panelists to wait around after the last sample).
Check out our other Text screen videos for different scenarios.
If you have any questions about any of the content in this video or software in general, please feel free to contact our support team for assistance.
