Approved

$ / hour

00:00:00 / completion time

Pros

-Auto approves, no rejections. As long as you keep your accuracy above a certain percentage (which is constantly displayed in the HIT frame), and are doing the minimum or above required amount, you're good.
-Guaranteed bonus based on how much more than the required amount you do. The highest i've gotten on one HIT was a 26 cent for getting 5/5 approved, but generally 3 seems to be the most that most people will approve (which is an 11 cent bonus, making the entire hit worth 16 cents).
-Pays out same day, HIT and Bonus payment.
-Work is really easy, if it's your kind of thing.
-Bonuses and base pay combined, I average about $13/hr

Cons

-If it's not your kind of thing, you're going to hate it.
-Your work is being graded by other turkers in a separate HIT, so what you thought made sense they may not think made sense.
-Grinding them for a long period of time is hard even if you enjoy them, so I do them in 10 or 15 minute bursts.

Approved

$9.00 / hour

00:00:40 / completion time

Pros

Approvals and bonuses are usually processed within minutes.
The work is interesting.. Its like a good mental puzzle, except you get paid for it.
The instructions are pretty good & well fleshed out with examples, but it can be helpful to start with the reviews so you see how other workers are answering questions yourself. For me doing that gave a much better understanding of the task.
Hourly can be variable and depends on your natural ability on the tasks. The Requester suggests 30s/HIT, I tend to average 40s/HIT.

Cons

It can take quite a long time to get into a flow/understanding on these HITs.
The work can be difficult depending on the sentence you draw. Skipping around means your hourly will decrease, so its probably best to "push through"
Your answers are judged by other workers, so there can be some variance in bonus approval.
The autocomplete answer field for these can be cumbersome to work with. The controls, while documented, don't really feel great to use (clicking/highlighting answers, populating the question field, etc).

Approved

$14.40 / hour

Pros

Quick approval time (within minutes) and feedback for agreement is provided in each hit to let you know how you are doing. The requester has also been awesome with resolving issues in the past.

Cons

After doing over a thousand of these hits in the past I've been unable to keep my agreement score up. Take your time and be careful during your grace period!

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
