FIXED- Whack-a-number game! MUST DO 20 mins straight! Headphones required. Up to $6 for 20 mins. - $0.35 +3.77 bonus Confirmed!

Fair

Unacceptable

Approved

$9.80 / hour

00:25:13 / completion time

Pros

Do a collaboration test - must use headphones for this task - read instructions - press the space bar as instructed - music and noise is played while you try to work on the task - there are also a couple of attention/sound checks mixed in

Cons

WARNING - they did not pay the bonus that was stated in the hit and they do not reply to any messages
Attention checks
05.16.2022-just received a payment of $3.77 when I should have got $4.65 I have sent a message to the requester as I actually took a picture of the bonus amount for my records when I completed the hit, will update.
05.19.2022-I have not heard anything so I sent another email with regards to the bonus shortfall - will update.
05.25.2022-Well no reply so I guess I will give up from here

Advice to Requester

You need to amend your study with regards to the bonus award if you are not prepared to honor the amount!

Perseverance game! Boring but with breaks! Headphones required. Up to $24 for 24 mins. - $0.35

Unrated

Unacceptable

Approved

$0.67 / hour

00:31:24 / completion time

Pros

A life lesson on the importance of reading requester history before doing a long hit such as this.

Cons

********Edit-Scam alert. Never responded to two emails. Do NOT do this hit. You will think you are getting a huge bonus, but will end up doing a tedious 30 minute hit for 35 cents, they have no intent to pay you the bonus*******

Time consuming and repetitive hit. Requester promised bonus within 48 hours, but nothing within 4 days. I sent a message to them.

Promised a 9 dollar bonus which was around 18 an hour, instead at $0.67 an hour

Advice to Requester

Seems like there is a history of people having to pull teeth to get a bonus. Make me wonder what happens if someone doesn't contact them. Don't play games with your workers, they took the time to do a tedious hit for you, pay them what you promised.

Whack-a-number game! MUST DO 20 mins! Headphones required. Bonus up to $13+/hr - $0.35 +3.40 bonus

Fair

Acceptable

Approved

$9.23 / hour

00:24:23 / completion time

Pros

pretty mindless

Cons

-requires constant attention
-frustrating to mess up
-Unsure if the requester got my data since after doing this it said "failed to send to server." So if I dont get this bonus, I am going to be beyond pissed. I did message them with the error as well as the bonus that I got. Again... livid if I dont get this bonus.

EDIT: I got the bonus, however it wasnt until after the 2nd message I send. It was almost instantaneous on the 2nd message. I love these hits since its easy to get the bonus, i just fear going forward if my time is going to count...

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
