“…Second, within the MLS group, almost half of the subjects had pathologies related to chronic tobacco consumption (suspect lesions and Reinke oedema). Both smoking and higher age have been shown to decrease gustatory function [17,18]. However, the question addressed was whether the procedure (MLS) itself induces significant changes in quantitative taste function.…”

“…There was little difference in acceptance for the attribute flavor among the smokers. The elevation of taste thresholds (lower sensibility to for detection and recognition) for the basic tastes for smokers has been demonstrated in some studies (Sato et al, 2002;Mela, 1989;Pavlos et al, 2009;Krut et al, 1961). It is possible that this lower sensibility most likely interfered with the perception of flavor and downplayed some of the differences between the samples caused by the sweeteners, thus making the smoker consumers to perceive less flavor changes caused by the addition of sweeteners.The samples sweetened with sucrose, sucralose, and cyclamate/saccharin had greater acceptance regarding overall impression by the group of nonsmoker consumers, and lower acceptance was observed for the sample prepared with stevia.…”

“…Life style such as smoking and alcohol consumption might relate to sensory discrimination abilities (Bramesco and Setser, 1996;Krut et al, 1961). Therefore, these habits were reported in this study so as to evaluate its relationship with judge performance.…”

The correlation between personality traits and judge performance was studied. The 16-personality factors questionnaire of Cattell was applied to 200 participants. Judge performance was evaluated following a series of taste and odor tests. Judges were then asked to rank basic different taste solutions. Finally, judges discriminated between purified water and sweet solution (29 mM) using the triangle test. Participant's health habits (smoking and alcohol consumption) were reported. Results showed that, out of 200 recruited participants, 66 were found discriminators. No correlations between judge performance and health habits were found. Two personality traits were correlated to sensory discrimination ability: The serious type personality was correlated to discriminators, while the experimenting type personality correlated to nondiscriminators. These results suggest the importance of using personality trait tests during sensory judge selection. ResumenLos rasgos de personalidad y la capacidad discriminatoria de 200 candidatos a jueces sensoriales fueron estudiados. Los rasgos de personalidad se evaluaron a través del cuestionario de factores de personalidad de Catell y el desempeño de los jueces se evaluó con pruebas de reconocimiento de olor y de sabor, pruebas de ordenación a diferentes niveles de dulzor y pruebas discriminatorias entre soluciones de sacarosa al 29 mM y agua purificada, usando la prueba triangular. Algunos hábitos de salud de los participantes (fumar y consumo de alcohol) fueron reportados. Los resultados mostraron que de los 200 participantes, 66 resultaron ser discriminadores. No se observó correlación entre los hábitos de salud y la capacidad discriminatoria de los jueces. Dos rasgos de personalidad presentaron correlación con la capacidad discriminatoria de los jueces: La personalidad 'seria' se correlacionó con jueces discriminatorios en las pruebas sensoriales, mientras que la personalidad 'experimentador' se correlacionó con candidatos sin capacidad discriminatoria. Estos resultados sugieren la importancia del uso de pruebas de personalidad en la selección de jueces sensoriales.
