Card Sorting Evaluation Protocol: A template for inclusive card sorting tests

This document presents the *Card Sorting Evaluation Protocol*, a procedural guide and reusable template for conducting card sorting tests within a User-Centred Design (UCD) process. The protocol is designed to accommodate participants with diverse functional abilities, including blind, deaf, and deafblind participants. It provides specific adaptations for participants who require non-spoken communication methods or require accessible card-reading support. The protocol can be adapted to different card sorting configurations and participant profiles, supporting the design and implementation of more inclusive card sorting evaluations..
