How many participants do you need for a card sort?
We recommend 15 participants for card sorting: with more, you'll get diminishing returns for each additional user; with fewer, you won't have enough data to reveal overlapping patterns in organization schemes. Analyze the data.
What type of card sorting lets the participant label their own categories?
In a hybrid card sort, participants will be sorting cards into categories that you provide and can add their own. Normally, researchers will use this technique when they already have some categories established but would like their customer's input as to what the others should be.
What is card sorting technique?
Card sorting is a method used to help design or evaluate the information architecture of a site. In a card sorting session, participants organize topics into categories that make sense to them and they may also help you label these groups.
