Pros

Cons

Rejected for the same reason. Reached out to the requester in hopes that they will be reasonable about this and overturn it.

Update: Requester agreed to overturn rejection but still has not done so days later. I sent them the link on how to reverse rejections but received no response. I sent a follow up today.

Update 2: Still hasn't overturned the rejection. Plus they are ignoring emails. Just gonna throw their name into the scammer pile.

Update 3: Never overturned the rejection. I contacted their school and they finally sent the payment as a bonus. Too lazy to actually follow the guide I gave them to overturn the rejection I guess. AVOID this person.

  • HIT Rejected

Pros

Cons

Rejected me for a short time spent, yet only had a ten minute timer. Survey was a small amount of writing and about 30 bubbles. 4 and a half minutes is plenty of time for any regular turker to finish that

Edit-12/13 Initially replied promising reversal, but never followed through. Seems like a requester that was overwhelmed on learning how to use mturk and decided to bail. Most likely(and hopefully) a one time requester.

Advice to Requester

1) If you insist on people "taking their time" don't set a timer that makes them feel the need to rush.

2) The only thing worse than rejecting a hit for an invalid reason is promising to reverse it shortly after, then ghosting everyone.

  • HIT Rejected

Pros

None this was a waste of time

Cons

Hit was rejected due to "The work time spent on the HIT was not realistic." But the timer was only 10 minutes so I had to complete the hit quickly. Not sure what exactly would have been realistic. Also no response to my communication request yet.

Advice to Requester

When giving out mass rejections you should at least respond to people. Give a longer timer if you want people not to feel rushed to get through it quickly.

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
