20-min psychology study - $2.00

Low

Unrated

Approved

$6.98 / hour

00:17:12 / completion time

Pros

4 rounds. You can pause between rounds, but the timer is only 1 hour long so I wouldn't delay too much. Your standard physics HIT (press F/J if you think X is going to happen next).

Cons

- Fullscreen
- They only give you the instructions once, so be SURE you know which key is which
- I took an extra minute to fill out the feedback form telling them they should pay workers fairly and that their instructions needed work. You can probably finish in ~15 minutes if you're not a complainer like me lol

Cognitive Tasks! - $9.50

Fair

Unrated

Approved

$9.52 / hour

00:59:51 / completion time

Pros

Tasks weren't bad, but a lot of unnecessary downtime on two of them in particular. tweaking animation would chop a good 5-10 or so minutes off this and I suggested as much to the requester.

Cons

hourly suffers due to a lot of wait time between rounds of certain tasks. even if they sped up doubt this would ever be more than an ok hourly at this pay.

20-min psychology study - $2.00

Fair

Unrated

Approved

$7.85 / hour

00:15:17 / completion time

Pros

You are given the opportunity to take a break between each of the four sections of the HIT.

Cons

during each trial (including the practice), the video ends and shows you a blank box where you must then submit your response with F/J. Comes across as if the HIT bugged out rather than it simply not telling you now's the time to input your response. You're only told what key means what response once at the start of the task.

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
