Samples & Design: Same/Different Test - Single
Overview
The number of samples play an important role in your Same/Different test setup. The sample blinding codes will not be displayed to panelists on the buttons. However, it is important to specify blinding codes in case you wish to display them using the Wildcards.
Please go into the Samples & design tab of your Same/Different test to follow the steps of this workflow.
Add Sample Sets, Samples, and Design
- In the Sample sets field, type the number of sample sets required in the test.
- The Samples field defaults to 2 and cannot be modified. This is because single Same/Different tests require only two samples.
- In the Design field, the default Same/Different design is selected and cannot be changed.
Place a checkmark in the Shuffle sample set order checkbox to shuffle the sample sets within the base block. This is useful when you are using the same panelists for testing, e.g. employees, to eliminate a possibility that they might learn the sample order after a period of time. - Click Save . Two samples with default information will be listed.
If you selected Shuffle sample set order checkbox, you will have the Shuffle and save button instead. To verify what the shuffled order is like, go to the Logistics tab and run the Serve reports .
Edit Sample Information
Update the sample information to suit your testing needs (these are optional steps).
- Type new Blinding codes . Same/Different tests require that each sample has two blinding codes because one sample is shown twice in some sample sets (panelists are asked to identify whether the samples are the same or different).
- Type the Sample name for each sample. This information will be visible in the analysis reports, and it can be made visible to panelists by using Wildcards .
- Select the Sample type that corresponds to your samples. Selections made here do not affect analysis in any way. They are for your information.
- Click Save .
Sample numbers can be rearranged in a test that is not running, by clicking on the 
icon and dragging the row of information into another row.
