Card sorting is a method to organize and categorize information. Participants are asked to sort cards representing items, concepts, or features into groups based on their perceived relationships.
There are several types of card sorting methods, including open card sorting, closed card sorting, and hybrid card sorting. In open card sorting, participants create their own groups and labels, while in closed card sorting, participants sort cards into predefined categories. Hybrid card sorting combines elements of both methods.
By setting up studies in Hubble, you can easily share the study links with your participants. Hubble also offers participant recruitment panel that has access to over 3 million users around the world.
