Abstract
Existing reviews of card sorting applications usually focus on the end user’s perspective of
the sorting experience. In this paper, we describe objective (task success and time on task)
and subjective (task difficulty, ease of interpretation of results output, satisfaction scores, and
preference rankings) results from a usability evaluation of three card sorting applications
from a researcher’s perspective. Results from this analysis show that the ease of setting up a
card sort exercise and the ability to quickly generate meaningful results are of vital
importance to researchers. Design recommendations for computerized card sort applications
are discussed.
