Hunt and Find: How transparent are your favorite systems? - $3.00

Good

Poor

Approved

$10.04 / hour

00:17:56 / completion time

Pros

I found it interesting.

Cons

I spent a lot of time looking for the answers, I'm sure others could find them much quicker than I could.
Rejected immediately with the message:One of the following: Repeated survey; efforts to mask IP address; survey time was below reasonable time necessary to meaningfully complete survey, as established in our pilot testing. I know I have NEVER done this before. He posted warnings about repeats and I checked before even starting it.
Edit - rejection was reversed but it took 3 emails and I had to cc IRB on email before getting a response. One of the first responses had said it was their first time using MTurk and they had made an error. Also said they had deleted all the data, so we were basically SOL. I think enough people complained that they finally overturned unfair rejections.

Acceptable

Approved

$18.18 / hour

00:09:54 / completion time

Pros

-Rejection overturned 10/18, perhaps coincidentally or not shortly after I sent a message to the IRB, I'm rating comm as acceptable because I'm kind of annoyed at the first message that just gave a generic list and I can't help but wonder if rejections were only reversed due to all the negative reception he got.

Cons

Rejected a few hours after submission with feedback of "X"
-Received response 2 days later just giving me a list of all the possible reasons for which I might have been rejected, what a joke.

Approved

$17.82 / hour

00:10:06 / completion time

Pros

Easy and interesting. Log into an account you frequent from a list they provide (e.g. Netflix or Amazon) and see if you can find answers to the questions they ask.

Cons

Rejected with "X" as a comment. I have reached out to the requester, so we'll see....
Edit: Rejection reversed when I emailed them directly and CC'd IRB, explaining that I had to attempt twice to use an account I could log in to. They responded on the inside of an hour.

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
