Discrimination Testing App

This easy to use App gives you all the statistical tools that you need to plan and analyse the most widely used discrimination tests:

• Triangle
• Tetrad
• Duo-Trio
• 2-AFC
• 3-AFC

Test Design

First – design your test properly for optimum results. The app provides sample size calculations for both difference and similarity tests, using thresholds based on either proportion of discriminators or Thurstonian d’.

Analysis

Once the test is complete, the test data can either be input from a .csv file or as summary counts. The analysis give a significance test followed by estimates of proportion correct, proportion of discriminators and d’ together with useful confidence intervals to a user specified level. The analysis can be based on the hypothesis of difference or similarity (with a user specified threshold for similarity).

Replicated tests are accommodated together with Beta- Binomial modelling and adjustment when required.

Once finalised the results can be exported in an easy to use format (.csv and .png files).
