Pros

Fair pay, I guess.
HIT was easy to do.
Update: The rejection was reversed, and the requester was very pleasant and got back to me in less than a day.

Cons

The requester stated "This task works best in Chrome. If you do the task in another browser your HIT may be rejected." .. MAY be rejected. This is like telling me chicken is better for me and if I eat pork I may have high cholesterol, I am still going to eat pork.

Advice to Requester

Do not be ambiguous in your instructions. If you want everyone to use Chrome then say "Must use Chrome" not " This task works best in Chrome. If you do the task in another browser your HIT may be rejected." Personally, this rejection does not lower my approval rate even a tenth of a percent. However there are a lot of workers with a lot fewer hits that use this platform as side income and depend on it. Please take that into consideration when you reject someone for not following ambiguous instructions. Clear communication is key to you getting the best data and workers doing their best work.

  • HIT Rejected

Pros

Cons

Rejected for the following reason - you didn't use the url generated for you, and your performance is too low. I did use the url generated in the hit, because of how the hit is set up you enter your worker id and then the url to complete the task appears so I used the one that showed up or I wouldn't of been able to complete the task. I also don't believe that my performance was low considering the task was relativity simple. The rejection doesn't hurt me but it just irritates me and wanted to warn others

  • HIT Rejected

Pros

Cons

Rejected my work and made two false claims. First, they claimed I did not use the URL that was generated for me (I did). Second, they said my performance was too low. However, the HIT clearly stated that you needed to have a 70% success rate in order to avoid rejection. I received an 80-90%+ on all four rounds.

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
