Pros

Nothing.

Cons

Atrocious. Hellish hit.
There were two rather long scaryish videos during the hit.
Then there were also horrible, horrible images if you got something wrong.
They did show a "feel good" video at the end to help you destress. The video had no sound. If you want to show a video with no sound to make me feel better, how about kittens and puppies playing not a soundless clip from a movie.

They said at the beginning the bonus would be $1. I've seen some people get $10 bonuses when they had the longer version but I'm not even sure if it would be worth it then.

Right now I feel like a masochist who just took a survey for a sadist.
I'm just gonna go bleach my brain now.

Edit: Only got the $1 I was promised not the larger bonus that some people got that would have made this somewhat worth the misery. I really wish I had just thrown this back.

Pros

- I actually enjoyed this hit. It was interesting and kind of fun to see see the images. - - I'm going to assume that different versions of this survey have different videos in between the images. My videos were not disturbing and pretty boring.

Cons

- It could pay a bit better, but like I said, I didn't mind this hit at all.
- The video pages are timed.
- Image pages auto-advance. Depending on your choice, you have another chance to view them, but if you look away or sneeze, welp, better start guessing.
- No progress bar.

Pros

Only good if you get the bonus.
Bonus was paid within hours.

Cons

This could have been a great hit but the requester put in 2 clips from movies that you had to watch (which could be disturbing to some) which were probably about 5 minutes long. On top of that, if you get an answer wrong you are shown a gruesome picture. This could be upsetting to some.

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
