Multi-attribute, Multi-alternative Decision-making(~ 45 minutes) - $1.50

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$5.16 / hour

00:17:27 / completion time

Pros

Getting to leave this review. I haven't left one this scathing in a while.

Cons

What absolute underpaid garbage. For less than minimum wage you can count the number of squares and circles that look identical to each other. Max bonus was 50 cents. I could have tried to get it and dropped my total hourly down to $4 an hour. Avoid this steaming pile of garbage at ALL COSTS.

White Blood Cell Identification(~ 60 minutes) - $3.00

Underpaid

Unrated

Pending

$6.62 / hour

00:27:11 / completion time

Pros

Took much less time than expected to complete. The estimated time I'm assuming accounts for expected breaks.

I found the task to be pretty engaging and challenging, but I can see how some would find it tedious and repetitive.

Zero tech issues.

Cons

As of now, it's severely underpaid because I have no idea if I get a bonus or for what amount it would be. I think it maxes out at $5 but of course, can't count on getting anywhere near that or getting anything at all.

Done a couple tasks from this requester before and always approved but also always poorly paid.

Learning and Risk Taking(~ 15 minutes) - $0.50 +1.16 bonus

Unrated

Good

Approved

$7.32 / hour

00:13:36 / completion time

Pros

The hit was good, but some aspects of the hits were very confusing.. the language wasn't clear..

Cons

Hit took control of the decision making halfway through the task (Decision Making), however, I got a bonus of 1.16. I sent an email to the requester to clarify the language to be more clearer and understandable, and they will take my advice in the future..

Advice to Requester

Good communication...

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
