Live Question/Answering about multiple Wikipeidia. - $2.00

Underpaid

Unacceptable

Approved

$2.64 / hour

00:45:31 / completion time

Pros

None to be found here.

Edited section, not going to put this in the cons: after making this review, the requesters made the same exact HIT but they proceeded to drop the base pay from the 2.00 dollars listed to 1.40, but with the same amount of questions and requiring the same amount of time.

Make of that as you will.

Cons

- Took me an average of almost 47 minutes to complete. Reasons to be disclosed later, but they genuinely expect to pay you only $2 dollars for work that should at least be $7.50.
- As is the normal problem with most of these tasks, these cooperative tasks are highly dependent upon you being able to hope that your partner is willing to work with you. This is extra important here as the rules explicitly state that you can not just try to worm your way out of it, if they think you're not trying hard enough they’ll reject both you and your partners study, and there are very strict ways around how you are supposed to do it.
- 16 times, you must ask and answer, back and forth. This will be important later, and also plays into how long it takes to do the HIT.
- Depending on if you’re either the asker or the answerer, you are given no information and limited information respectively and are expected to work off that.
- The reason why it took so long is because of certain factors that the answerer is required to do on top of the back and forth that goes on in the HIT.
- And now, the reasons why I feel like no one should do these HITs: These HITs take an oppressively long time, almostly by which I feel is by intentional design. The first time, my partner just decided to bail, meaning that I had to look for a new partner for almost 20 minutes before I just reset, which is probably for the best, because it took me about 49 minutes with my second partner.
- That didn’t actually matter because you can’t complete the HIT without answering and asking 16 times. The rules state that if your partner disconnects beforehand, you are supposed to continue on and go through the remaining ones, but what actually happens is that it cuts off entirely with no chance for continuation, meaning that you have to reset. My partner finished up their 16th question and then just left me without allowing me to answer it, meaning that I had to reset from the beginning by returning the HIT and starting a new one. By the time I was able to actually finish the HIT the third time, which took 42 minutes, it was obvious that it was poorly designed and very likely designed in such a way to simply just feed free data back to whatever central servers they had without really needing to bother with people taking the time do their study in any way, shape, or form.


In short, this study is a grand example of what not to do if you want people to actually care about your HIT. My third partner clearly didn’t even care about it and was feeding obviously false information and was willing to risk a rejection in order to get paid.

Avoid this HIT and this Requester at all costs.

Advice to Requester

Either increase the pay significently, drop the amount needed to be done to 4 chats instead, or offer up bonuses for those who stay longer in the chat. The rules are contradictory and too draconian to have a real actual conversation about the topic. In addition, being an answerer shouldn’t be an instant lost condition, and the answerer should be able to finish the topic regardless of the problems.

Tried to do the actual hit and its basically broken. Impossible to move around the virtual space without being constantly hung up & unable to move. Eventually gave up and returned

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
