Answer a survey about your perception of minds in humans, animals, and robots - $1.00

Generous

Unrated

Approved

$20.93 / hour

00:02:52 / completion time

Pros

Cons

Not sure if this was set up wrong but it ended, or so I thought, asked if I was from Mturk and then goes to a page where the code should be and it is blank. Hit the arrow key and it advances to another section. After finishing that you get a survey code. Not sure if this was formatted improperly or if this was intentional. Either way figured I should mention this because I was tempted to either end what I was doing and send the requester a message or just return it.
Fortunately, the second section is not too long. This set up for the survey needs improvement because it's gonna cause confusion for some.

Answer a survey about your perception of minds in humans, animals, and robots - $1.00

Good

Unrated

Approved

$19.46 / hour

00:03:05 / completion time

Pros

Easy. Review 25 images and rate each one on two scales, using sliders

Cons

At one point, you advance and it asks if you're taking the survey for Mturk. After you answer, it pushes you to a page that makes it seem like it's over...except the completion code is missing.
Advance the page again and there are roughly 5 images left to rate. After you do those, it asks the question about mturk again and THEN gives you a page with a completion code.

Disability and Distance(~ 10 minutes) - $1.00

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$5.51 / hour

00:10:53 / completion time

Pros

Nothing! - Answer a few generic 'self' type questions - work through a multitude of images answering 2 questions per image - same day approval

Cons

Repetitive never ending 'bowl of spaghetti' and I almost threw this back - the images seemed to work on a continuous loop - extremely underpaid

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
