Certainly, I can provide interpretations for the data presented in Chapter 4 of your research paper:
1. **Taste:**
- The data on taste preferences shows that “Salty” is the most preferred taste among respondents,
with 20% of them choosing it. “Crunchy” and “Sweet and sour” are also popular, with 24% and 18%
preferences, respectively.
2. **Crispness:**
- The majority of respondents (60%) prefer snacks with “Thickness.” “Crunchiness” is the second most
preferred crispness factor at 22%.
3. **Appearance:**
- “Dark brown” is the most favored appearance choice, with 52% of respondents preferring it. “Light
brown” is the second most popular at 26%.
4. **Aroma:**
- “Slightly perceptible garlic” and “Very perceptible garlic” aromas are the top two choices, with 26%
and 53% of respondents preferring them, respectively.
- The majority of respondents (74%) prefer to “Soak Calcium hydroxide solution for 5 hours” over “Soak
Solution overnight,” which is chosen by 50% of the participants.
- A significant majority (68%) opt for the “Dryer machine” for drying snacks, while 56% prefer “Direct
sunlight exposure.”
- Detailed percentages for the “Overall Acceptability” rating are not provided, but it’s clear that ratings
in the range of 6 to 9 are important for evaluating the overall acceptability of the snacks.
These interpretations provide a snapshot of the preferences and choices of respondents regarding taste,
crispness, appearance, aroma, and processing methods for the snacks, which is valuable information for
your research paper.
