10minute survey about you online behavior - $1.50

Generous

Poor

Approved

$20.22 / hour

00:04:27 / completion time

Pros

Quick and easy.

Bonus opportunity? Not entirely sure, but I put 50 cents as a placeholder. Said it would be paid a month out from the study.

Edit (10/5): I made attempts in August to collect the bonus I thought I was owed, but was given the standard, "you missed an attention check, but we paid you anyways" answer. I sent a response with information that I thought would prove otherwise, but received an out of office. I sent one or two more automated bonus emails and received another response with the same canned answer, "you missed an attention check."

At the time of this edit, no one has logged or confirmed a bonus for this HIT. Maybe we all missed the attention check... Unfortunately it is my word against theirs, and since they claim the error is mine, I removed the bonus from this review instead of marking it as unpaid. I added a rating for communication to reflect my experience.

10minute study to test a new dating chatbot - WARNING: This HIT may contain adult content. Worker discretion is advised. - $1.30

Underpaid

Acceptable

Approved

$2.53 / hour

00:30:51 / completion time

Pros

Received a fifty cent bonus and an apology that said they were experiencing technical difficulties.

Cons

External chat system takes several minutes to load. Once it has loaded it takes around 30 seconds to respond to each answer you give. After it asks you several minutes worth of background questions, then it goes into rating questions that would have been better handled in bubble format on the original survey. When you finally get done with the chat, you go back and answer some bubble questions there. Terrible HIT.

Advice to Requester

Fix your chatbot to be quicker responding to the workers. Raise your pay to reflect the real time it takes to do the HIT.

Research on Investment Choices & Decisions - $1.30

Good

Unrated

Pending

$12.45 / hour

00:06:16 / completion time

Pros

Reasonably interesting, not too many questions

Cons

The instructions are posted as a PDF, but it wouldn't load in either Firefox or Chrome on its own. Right clicking on the broken image icon and opening it in a new tab seemed to work, however.

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
