Face Perception Study - $0.25 +5.25 bonus

Generous

Excellent

Approved

$18.88 / hour

00:17:29 / completion time

Pros

EDIT: So the bonus was paid out the next day and the requester was relatively responsive to this one. I had messaged them stating that some of the faces were incredibly difficult to tell and grade and therefor if I got a number of them wrong, it was simply because I had no idea, not that I wasnt trying. They responded in a timely fashion and all was good on my end.

Cons

WOW. Where do i start? First off, the base hit is 25c WITH the variable bonus of 5.25 IF you pass all of the AC's.

Sounds easy right? Think again. There are roughly 10 AC's all of which have to do with enthicities of the men in the previous picture(this was in the HIT description btw).

Still easy right? Na. I dont know about you, but I struggle to tell the difference between a dark latin guy and a black guy. Oh, and there are some latin looking asians too. Or maybe im just really crappy at telling what enthic origin people are. Who knows.

But there's more. All of which YOU NEED TO GET RIGHT to get that bonus. If you dont get them all right, or the majority, not only are you rejected, but you dont get that sweet bonus. The only bonus that makes this HIT even worth considering.

All for the price of 25c. A fricken quarter for nearly 20 minutes. I should have thrown this turn back, but I completed to write this review to ward off others. IK sent them a nice little message too considering they didnt have a profile yet in TV. Letting them know you cant toss out a turd hit with a fishing pole on the front. On its end being the possibility of a bonus. This is not the way we work around here. Instead of trying to produce good work through a high bonus, they wont get any work at all.

But hey. Maybe some of you are masochists who enjoy putting hot sauce in thier eyes and salt on fresh wounds for fun. Who knows. If you're that kind of guy, this is the hit for you. If you like turning the light off before bed, and in pitch blackness, slowly walking to your bed, pausing before you jump in so your feet are just underneath the bedframe, this hit is for you.

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
