| Abstract [eng] |
Subjective assessments treat fabric hand as a psychological reaction obtained from the sense of touch, based on experience and sensitivity of humans. In this paper we identify the effect of judge panel’s training number and methodology upon the accuracy and agreement level between the results of fabric’s hand subjective evaluation. The objects of subjective evaluation are three groups of 100% cotton fabric, treated by commercial stiffener. The concentration of stiffener in each group differed by 3ml/l, by 5ml/l, by 7ml/l, respectively. The experiments are performed with the panel of ten qualified judges. The samples of assessed fabric are ranked individually for such textile subjective characteristics as: hardness, stiffness, flexibility, softness, roughness, smoothness, stretchability and resiliency. The discussion of agreement level changes on the basis of Kendall’s coefficient of concordance W is presented for total hand evaluation, as well as for individually assessed fabric’s subjective characteristics. The reliability of trained judge panel is evaluated. |
