What is one of the objectives when analyzing results from an In/Out test?

In analyzing results from an In/Out test, one primary objective is to determine whether to accept or reject the product based on the sensory characteristics assessed by the panelists. The In/Out test helps identify whether a product meets predefined sensory criteria or standards when compared to a reference. If the product is found to be significantly different or not meeting the expectations, it could lead to a decision for rejection. Conversely, if it aligns well with the acceptable characteristics, the product can be accepted for production or further development. This process ensures that only products that meet quality and sensory benchmarks make it to market, maintaining consumer satisfaction and brand integrity. The other options, while relevant in other contexts, do not align directly with the immediate goal of assessing product acceptability through sensory evaluation.
