Card Sorting Research Types
Participants are asked to organize topics from content within your website into groups that make sense to them and then name each group they created in a way that they feel accurately describes the content. Use an open card sort to learn how users group content and the terms or labels they give each category.
Participants are asked to sort topics from content within your website into pre-defined categories. A closed card sort works best when you are working with a pre-defined set of categories, and you want to learn how users sort content items into each category.
You could conduct an open card sort first to identify content categories and then use a closed card sort to see how well the category labels work.
Helps to build the structure for your website
Helps to decide what to put on the homepage
Helps to label categories and navigation
Helps early in the design process before wireframes or prototypes have been created.
Combine Card Sorting and Live Conversation
You can get the most from Checkealos using Card Sorting and Live Conversation together.
Prepare the cards
Create your list of content topics. Topics can be phrases or words, very specific or more general. As a suggestion, limit yourself to 50-60 topics or less.
Set-up the session
Schedule the live conversation inviting the participants either from Checkealos Participants or from your audience, also invite another research member to take notes as the participant works and thinks aloud.
Lead the session
The participant will be shown the set of cards, so they will be able to talk out loud while sorting the cards
Analyze Your Data
Obtain a powerful and sophisticated variety of data content organization and conceptualization analysis tools:
– Multidimensional Scaling
– Disimilarity
– Respondant Centric Analysis (RCA)
One on Ones are moderated sessions, you can use the Checkealos Live Conversation Method with a moderator. Checkealos Participants or your audience participants think aloud while sorting, giving a clearer picture of their reactions and thought processes.
Group and Concurrent Sessions have participants sort a set of cards as a group. The facilitator may brief the participants at the beginning and debrief the participants at the end, but the participant together for most of the session.
Group and independent concurrent sessions have participants sort a set of cards independently. The moderator may brief the participants at the beginning and debrief the participants at the end, but the participant works alone for most of the session.
