Social Media in Society - Multi-Part Research Study $32 Bonus - $3.00 +32.00 bonus Confirmed!

Fair

Excellent

Approved

$9.45 / hour

03:42:18 / completion time

Pros

Political and social media type survey - answer various questions - two writing tasks - make sure to enter your email (which is on the debrief screen) so they can invite you to part 2 and part 3. Part 2 will involve working on a system communicating with other workers for a period of around 2 weeks - part 3 will follow afterwards - once all parts are completed you get paid the bonus. I worked on a similar hit for this requester last year and emailed them to make sure I could work on this one, great communication stated that I could do this one also - could be done faster - fair pay
04.11.2022 - Received a bonus of $32 this weekend - the time on this is an estimate to give a better idea of the hourly on this - 14 days of approx 15 minutes each day on the social experiment + 12 minutes for the initial survey = total 222 minutes $9.45 per hour

Cons

2 political writing tasks minimum of 50 characters on each - no code, sent a message to requester (some people reported that they got a code) - also states in the 'survey link instructions' that you will be asked for your MTurk ID but there was no where on this survey that asked that question.

Social Media in Society - Research Survey - $3.00

Good

Unrated

Approved

$15.84 / hour

00:11:22 / completion time

Pros

Easy to complete, bubbles
There is an opportunity to do a follow up study which requires participating in an "online discussion about social and political events on a mock social media platform, called Community Connect. You will be enrolled on Community Connect for 14 days and asked to participate for about 10 to 15 minutes each day."
The invitation for this comes by email and, upon completion, worker will receive a $33 bonus
(Requester also has a $35 HIT posted that is essentially the same as this survey but, HIT won't be paid until you complete the 2 week exercise....this HIT seems better because if something goes wrong or you fail to do the follow ups, you won't risk rejection of a $35 HIT)

Cons

Asks for email address to send follow up details

Social Media in Society - Research Survey - $3.00 +33.00 bonus Confirmed!

Low

Unrated

Approved

$14.39 / hour

02:30:04 / completion time

Pros

Can be done faster, I'm just slow at working on surveys-initial survey. After initial survey there was a 2 week assignment working on a mock social media site with a payment of the bonus at the end. The average time spent was no more than 10 minutes each day which equals a total time of 150 minutes. Pretty interesting would love to do it again!

Cons

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
