“…56.75% (n = 42) of the studies identified, in addition to performing descriptive analysis of the categories/dimensions, used the Chi-Square test to compare the frequency of mention of the words or categories generated from the WA technique, either to ascertain the association/independence in the frequency of mention between rows and columns (McHugh, 2013) of the categories represented in the contingency table or to identify the source of variation in the same table with the Global Chi-Square and Chi-Square per Cell tests (Symoneaux et al, 2012). The review shows that its use has been extended for the analysis of the information generated from the WA technique (Ares et al, 2015;de Andrade et al, 2015;Judacewski et al, 2019;Krumreich et al, 2019;Bernal-Gil et al, 2020;Rocha et al, 2020), specifically for the study of the sensory characteristics of products (Ares and Deliza, 2010b;Krumreich et al, 2019), or according to the frequency of consumption that people present towards different foods (de Andrade et al, 2016;Judacewski et al, 2019), including the identification of types of consumer groups according to their perception and eating behaviors (Viana et al, 2014;Rojas-Rivas et al, 2019;Bernal-Gil et al, 2020). Moreover, in cross-cultural studies, these statistical tests are par excellence the tools to make comparisons in the frequency of mention of the categories/dimensions (Ares et al, 2015;Sulmont-Roseé et al, 2019) and identify the most relevant elements in each population or culture.…”
