“…For instance, in several studies the sensory properties of various types of materials have been evaluated (Hermes, 1998), including packaging materials (Chen, Barnes, Childs, Henson, & Shao, 2009;Civille & Dus, 1990;Murray & Delahunty, 2000a, 2000b and clothing fabrics (Burns, Brown, Cameron, Chandler, & Kaiser, 1995;Cardello, Winterhalter, & Schutz, 2003;Civille & Dus, 1990). Other studies have investigated sensory properties in particular product categories, such as personal care products (Civille & Dus, 1991;Wortel & Wieckers, 2000), cigarette lighters (Lageat, Czellar, & Laurent, 2003), coffee makers (van Egmond, 2008), parabolic skis (Dore, Pailhes, Fischer, & Nadeau, 2007), air conditioning systems (Evin & Siekierski, 2002;Petit, Siekierski, & Danzart, 2005), or elements of car interiors (Bonapace, 2002;Giboreau, Navarro, Faye, & Dumortier, 2001;Karlsson & Velasco, 2007). More and more studies also investigate the subtle sensory manipulations that may seem to be of only minor importance, such as the role of olfaction in the evaluation of clothes (Fiore, 1993;Laird, 1932;Liu, Tovia, Balasubramian, Pierce, & Dugan, 2008) or the sounds that fabrics make (Cho, Cho, & Kim, 2009).…”
