Play Web-Based Games (~45 minutes with optional survey) - $5.00

Unrated

Acceptable

Approved

$ / hour

00:00:00 / completion time

Pros

No clue as to what my real time was so I zeroed it out. Mainly leaving this review to help others. You must complete both ACE 1 and ACE 2. The survey is optional, but takes like 3 minutes.

Cons

Instructions are lacking which makes this very confusing and frustrating.

If you start a module and back out for any reason, there is message that states it is "still processing" and it won't let you back in. I emailed their team, but I figured this out on my own. There is a 10 minute lockout before you can go back in, which was later confirmed by their response.

I wanted to give this HIT high marks for the fun interface they designed, but this whole experience could have gone much better and that falls on the requester.

Overall, I think $5 is probably way underpaid as both the ACE1 and ACE 2 modules take at least 15-25 minutes each to work through.

Play attention games (NORMAL/CORRECTED VISION AND HEARING REQUIRED) - $3.00

Low

Unrated

Approved

$7.50 / hour

00:24:00 / completion time

Pros

Unpaid screener at the beginning, I think. If you pass, you go on to answer some personality questions, and then you're sent to a separate site to play a game. That's the end of the task before getting a complete code.

Cons

- Unity
- Fullscreen
- Composed of 2 "games" of 2 rounds each (mash a key when X condition is met). You can pause between rounds but otherwise this requires full concentration, you can't do anything else during this HIT, and the time is pretty much locked in because the trials are for a set time: for these reasons this should have paid at least $4 because I can't imagine anyone can do this significantly faster (the only wiggle room is the survey preceding the game).

Play Brain Games on your Android Device or Web Browser (Part 1 of 2) - $3.00

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$3.33 / hour

00:54:00 / completion time

Pros

Cons

broke my browser and closed out halfway through being done, which is pretty cool obv.
also, there were a lot of times it said unauthorized tapping, which I was doing it the way I was supposed to, and then there were times it said I hadn't tapped in time but I had - it seems to have just been sensitive to my touch screen
Finally, there were two parts of the game - i think they were forward and reverse gem chaser that just didn't work with my touchscreen at all and give me poor scores, which was slightly frustrating
If it wasn't kind of glitchy in response to my touchscreen, hadn't closed halfway, and just paid better in general then this would actually be a really fun HIT

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
