Learn a small part of a new language. - $4.00 +2.00 bonus Confirmed!

Fair

Acceptable

Pending

$9.34 / hour

00:38:33 / completion time

Pros

Learning a fake foreign language.
Nice break from doing surveys and small batch jobs.
Gives you hints without giving away the information for you to figure out, good thinking HIT.
Knowledge refresher in the middle.
Promises if you do well, multiple HITs to follow.
Edit: With the bonus, the pay is now from low to fair.
E-mails reminders for follow-up HITs with same rates of pay.

Cons

Learning something that's not going to be of practical use to anyone might be not worthwhile to some.
Multiple sections, some up to 80 questions.
Some people may prefer to be spoon-fed the information rather than figure thing out.

Spoken picture description task. - $6.00

Generous

Unrated

Approved

$13.51 / hour

00:26:39 / completion time

Pros

The rounds are numbered, so you know exactly how far along you are. Demographics after the main task are very brief. If you aren't matched with a person, you'll be paired with a computer, and it said you'd only have to wait up to 1 minute. They also provided an email address to get some sort of compensation if your partner drops out, though it's not specified how much the compensation will be.

Cons

Took a while to load. 104 rounds, each round consists of speaking one short phrase and listening to your partner's recording and selecting a picture. Easy, but got kind of mind numbing after a while.

Good

Unrated

Approved

$10.93 / hour

00:32:57 / completion time

Pros

I liked that this was something different.
Tells you what trial you are on.
Update - received $1 bonus the next day with the message "Top-up payment for the picture descirption task - after reviewing the amount of time it takes most workers we decided the original payment was a little low."

Cons

Took a long time to load.
104 trials where you have to speak and 104 trials where you have to choose which picture matches what your partner said.

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
