logical manner so that the research problem is efficiently handled. It is similar to broad plan or
model that states how the entire research project would conduct. It is desirable that it must be in
This study utilized the descriptive research design. According to Bhat (2015), descriptive
research is define as a research method that describes the characteristics of the population or
phenomenon that is being studied. This methodology focuses more on “what” of the research
subject rather than the “why’ of the research subject. This allows the researcher to gather,
analyze, classify, and present data about the subject of the study. Hence, this research design
involves the recording, analysis, and description of data gathered in the surveys of the Sensory
Moreover, this study also utilized the comparative research design. According to
Richardson (2018) comparative research essentially compares two groups in an attempt to draw
a conclusion about them. The researchers attempt to identify and analyze similarities and
differences between groups, and these studies are most often cross-national, comparing two
separate people groups. Hence, this research design can identify the similarities between the
banana fruit and powdered banana flavor as a flavor in making ice cream.
Lastly, quantitative research approach was used in this study. According to DeFranzo
(2011), quantitative research is used to quantify the problem by way of generating numerical
data or data that can be transformed into usable statistics. Hence, two approach was suited for
this study since it used quantitative techniques to determine the sensory acceptability of banana

Thus, the sample size is the final population which is called respondents.
Furthermore, to compute the sample size with each section, stratified sampling was
involves the division of a population into smaller subgroups known as strata. In stratifies random
