Analyse a just-about-right scale: the share too little, just about right, and too much, and the net direction of the off-target responses.
Try sample values — fills the form with the worked example below.
–
Just about right (%)
–
Too little (%)
–
Too much (%)
Equation: Each % = count ÷ total × 100; total = too little + just right + too much; Net = too much % − too little %.
Method: ISO 6658:2017 sensory methodology; just-about-right (JAR) scaling per ASTM E1958.
Assumptions: Each consumer gives one JAR response per attribute; counts are whole numbers.
Limitations: A JAR profile flags direction only — it does not prove the attribute drives liking without a penalty analysis.
Rounding: Percentages to 2 decimal places; intermediates unrounded.
This is a calculation aid, not a laboratory report — confirm against your accredited method before citing a value.

Worked example: 10 too little, 60 just right, 30 too much: 60.00% just about right, 10.00% too little, 30.00% too much, net +20.00 points toward too much.
