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.mdeem Average Pace
