卡片排序法為使用者經驗設計常用方法之一，目的為得知使用者對於多種項目的歸類與想法，常大量用於資訊結構的設計上。於產品設計中，卡片排序法亦為常用設計研究方法之一。然而為有效歸類出產品特徵，實驗者往往需準備大量刺激物供受試者排序，實驗者與受試者皆易為大數量刺激物而降低實驗效率。
本研究目的以改善卡片排序法使用者經驗為基礎，(1) 簡化實驗者在準備實驗時的人力手續，例如編號卡片、輸入實驗數據；(2) 減輕受試者在執行分類大量刺激物的負擔。透過實際觀察卡片排序實驗過程與半結構訪談，瞭解卡片排序實驗中使用者行為與需求，並以同時擁有直覺性操控與快速處理大量數據優勢之觸控型智慧平板為平台，開發一以圖片為刺激物之卡片排序實驗智慧型程式APP。利用多媒體影音的優勢以及智慧型裝置的數據處理能力，本研究成果之APP (1) 有效提升實驗進行的效率，以及 (2) 成功改善受試者在傳統卡片排序實驗中負面感受。

Card sorting is one of the most frequent used techniques in user experience design, the purpose of card sorting is to understand how the target audience organize variety of items and why, which is useful in designing information architecture. In product design we also use a lot card sorting in our research, however, in order to construct valid data for products, the experimenter has to prepare quite an amount of stimulus for subject to sort, the huge amount of stimulus often cause both experimenter and subject suffering.
This study aimed to improve the user experience of card sorting. (1) We simplified the manual handling for experimenter, like preparing cards and key-in data; (2) alleviated the burden of work during sorting process for subject. Via observations and semi-structured interviews we explored the user behavior and needs, took it as foundation to develop a card sorting APP on smart tablet, which possessed intuitive manipulation and fast data processing ability. With an advantage of multimedia display and data processing performance, the APP (1) enhanced efficiency of card sorting experiment and (2) improve the unpleasant experience of card sorting for subject.
