Jury Duty - The Kind You Can Do In Your PJs (DC5QBJ3)(~ 56 minutes) - $10.05

Generous

Unrated

Approved

$6.29 / hour

01:35:53 / completion time

Pros

Always interesting. They tell you exactly what they want nothing is ambiguous. I have found every single one of these HITS interesting. And I feel like I get educated every time I do one, because I learn something new they are fair requester actually more than fair. And as long as you do your work the way that they ask which is simply easily explained and pay attention you will be just fine. They are nice enough to even offer if something happens and you are running out of time they give you exact instructions and they do take care of you. The pay is always good I don't like the way this automatically set it up and says that it's "underpaid" . ITS NOT underpaid. Sometimes I myself need to reread something, especially something like this a couple of times to make sure I fully understand what I'm doing so the HIT is not underpaid in my opinion I'm actually very grateful to get work from them so I would not dare complain so that is why I am rating it at "generous pay"

Cons

none

Advice to Requester

Thank you for providing such a good HITS, that I can learn from and happy to be able to do. Thank you for laying the instructions out exactly how you want them and very clear.

Jury Trial - Participate in Research on a Real Case(~ 43 minutes) - $5.25

Generous

Poor

Pending

$14.22 / hour

00:22:09 / completion time

Pros

- Great pay, as long as you don't mind fair amount of reading. Content tends to be pretty interesting.
- Very consistent pay; tends to value the time of the worker.
- Completed 10 of his hits; 8/10 approved, one pending.

Cons

- Memory checks with a 10% failure rate, doesn't tell you if you missed one. MCs can be minor details.
- Doesn't respond to repeated (polite) messaging.
- Switched Requester IDs a couple times to get away from bad TO ratings.
- Long AA.

Advice to Requester

Memory checks are a perfectly valid form of checking worker attention, but being too nit picky about it can inadvertently throw out good data. Steer away from details such such as a person's name or age, as many people forget those easily, unless it was pertinent to the case/mentioned multiple times. Also, be more proactive in responding to emails on your requester account.

Jury Duty - The Kind You Get Paid For (Beck-RTA)(~ 37 minutes) - $4.15

Fair

Unrated

Pending

$8.97 / hour

00:27:45 / completion time

Pros

YMMV, can almost certainly be done faster,

Cons

Emotionally jarring content in this one I would say, and with no warning. Time doesn't include the 10 minute break I took after watching the 8 minutes in videos that were pretty disturbing to me.

Also, pays less/ worse than other surveys I've done for this requester in the past.

While the pay was "fairish", I've come to expect better from this requester. It makes me want to skim in the future cause I know I can get away with it.

Disappointing experience for me.

Shit would give some people nightmares, especially if you've lost a family member in a similar fashion in the past.

Approval Tracking

Wage Aggregate Tracking

This is fairly straightforward: we take the completion time & the reward amount (where available) and calculate the average hourly rate for the task. We then apply that number to a simple range based on US minimum wage standards to color-code the data for easy to digest numerical data.

Color Pay Range (Hourly) Explanation
RED < $7.25 / hr Hourly averages below US Federal minimum wage
ORANGE $7.25 - $10.00 / hr Hourly averages between Federal & highest statewide (CA) minimum wages.
GREEN > $10.00 / hr Hourly averages above all US minimum wage standards

Reward Sentiment

Not all HITs are created equal. Sometimes an hourly wage doesn't convey the full story of a HIT's true worth, so we encourage workers to give their opinion on the overall pay of the task. Was it $8/hr to rate pictures of puppies? A worker could justifiably bump up the rating a bit for something so adorable. 10 hours locked in Inquisit? Even for $10/hr many workers would appreciate the heads up on such a task. The Pay Sentiment rating helps connect workers beyond the hard data.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Underpaid 1 / 5
  • Very low or no pay
  • Frustrating work experience
  • Inadequate instructions
Low 2 / 5
  • Below US min-wage ($7.25/hr)
  • No redeeming qualities to make up for pay
Fair 3 / 5
  • Minimum wages for task (consider SE taxes!)
  • Work experience offers nothing to tip the scales in a positive or negative direction
Good 4 / 5
  • Pay is above minimum wage, or compensates better than average for the level of effort required.
  • The overall work experience makes up for borderline wages
Generous 5 / 5
  • Pay is exceptional.
  • Interesting, engaging work or work environment
  • Concise instructions, well designed HIT.

Communication Ratings

Communication is an underrated aspect of mTurk. Clear, concise directions. A fast response to a clarification question or a resolution to a workflow suggestion can all be valuable aspects of interaction between Requesters & Workers and its worth keeping track of. Plus everyone enjoys the peace of mind knowing that if something does go wrong there will be an actual human getting back to you to solve the issue.

Icon Rating Suggested Guidelines
Unacceptable 1 / 5
  • No response at all
  • Rude response without a resolution
Poor 2 / 5
  • Responsive, but unhelpful
  • Required IRB or extra intervention
Acceptable 3 / 5
  • Responded in a reasonable timeframe
  • Resolves issues to a minimum level of satisfaction.
Good 4 / 5
  • Prompt Response
  • Positive resolution
Excellent 5 / 5
  • Prompt response time
  • Friendly & Professional
  • Helpful / Solved Issues
  • Interacts within the community

Approval Time Tracking

This rating is strictly for approval times. Let's face it, no one wants to mix approval time ratings with how fast a Requester rejects a HIT, so we've saved rejection flags for another category. This provides a more straightforward way to know about how long your HIT might sit pending before paying out. The default auto-approval for most MTurk tasks is 3 days, the maximum is 30 days. We've tried to base our ratings around those data-points.

Icon Rating Approval Time
Very Slow 1 / 5 Over 2 weeks
Slow 2 / 5 ~1 - 2 Weeks
Average 3 / 5 ~3 - 7 Days
Fast 4 / 5 ~1 - 3 Days
Very Fast 5 / 5 ~24 hours or less
