Pros

Cons

With a completion estimate of 25 minutes, the requester does not aim to provide adequate compensation to workers.
Oddly worded instructions
Experimental writing
Seemed to go on forever... Finally got to a page that said something along the lines of, you have 25 questions left in this section and then 5 more questions and then you're done. As other reviews stated, that was definitely not the case.
A "three minute" timed page to think about what you'll be writing about which includes a text field to "help you" in the thought process... The timer was up in a minute or so, I believe, and the next page again included a text box to again write out your thoughts. Makes you wonder who's behind the wheel sometimes....

Writing about wrongdoing in relationships(~ 12 minutes) - $1.40 +0.20 bonus Confirmed!

Low

Unrated

Approved

$7.92 / hour

00:12:07 / completion time

Pros

Took about as long as estimated. YMMV depending on typing speed and how much you write.

ETA: Got an unexpected bonus with the message:
The Requester included this note:
Thanks for completing our survey and answering all of the questions in full + thoughtfully! We appreciate the time and effort you put into our study and wish you all the best.

Cons

Several writing prompts. Pay is low with my work speed, irrespective of bonus. With bonus, meets federal minimum wage.

Imagining a better future(~ 25 minutes) - $2.90

Fair

Unrated

Approved

$9.67 / hour

00:18:00 / completion time

Pros

Short-ish with fair pay I guess.

Cons

Survey clearly says "After this set of questions there are only 5 small question sets and then you are done!" and then goes on to add 5 more pages.
Repetitive questions, repetitive questions, questions are repetitive
Write about a time when you enjoyed writing about a time.
I told them all this so hopefully they dont reject based on my irritation with them.

Advice to Requester

Do not mislead people. It is unnecessary.

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
