Can children use the A‐not a test?

Sensory scientists have adapted several sensory methods to fit children's cognitive abilities. Although discrimination been reported with children, the A-not-A test has not studied yet. The aims of this work were to: (i) evaluate feasibility using A-Not-A school-aged and (ii) compare how framing question (overall differences vs. in liking) may influence results. A total 126 children involved study. They participated three sessions, each composed a familiarization task visual stimuli sample tasting one dairy products (vanilla milk desserts, chocolate-flavored milk, vanilla-flavored yogurt). Half evaluated samples terms overall other half liking. Results from step showed that correctly identified reference regardless was framed, suggesting they able understand methodology. In case samples, significantly more likely identify two products, when based on liking, as compared differences. Practical Applications present 8–13 year-old use it differentiate tasted samples. However, had significant effect their performance. Framing liking show higher ability discriminate provide accurate
