Exercise Cognitive Control - $2.50 +0.50 bonus Confirmed!

Underpaid

Excellent

Approved

$7.76 / hour

00:23:11 / completion time

Pros

Bonus possible. Amount is disclosed at the end of the survey... however, it's misleading because it INCLUDES the base payment so the $ will look a lot higher than the bonus actually is. Kind of deceptive.
UPDATE: Bonus was supposed to be a few bucks. Got 50 cents. Emailed the requester and they promptly emailed me back with a comp HIT.

Cons

Not recommended. Various keyboard memory tasks (1-back, 2-back, etc.) for ~22 straight minutes. Badly formatted bubble survey afterwards. You can't really pause during the task to do anything else and it will take your full concentration.

Visual learning experiment - $3.50 +0.27 bonus Confirmed!

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$8.05 / hour

00:28:07 / completion time

Pros

Edit: bonus paid same day.

Cons

Just absolute garbage.

I am not even salty that I couldn't pick up on the patterns so my bonus was low. I am more salty about the amount reasonable time needed and expected (because if you go too fast, you get a warning) by the researcher to complete this task and the abysmal pay rate. In a task like this, bonus should be icing on the cake, not a way to make up for a crappy starting pay.

Generous

Unrated

Approved

$23.45 / hour

00:25:35 / completion time

Pros

Click through various pictures and grade them - hit is split into 3 sections - anticipated time of completion given was 45 minutes and I managed to finish it in plenty of time - chance of winning $1.00 bonus - generous pay
09.27.2021-recieved $1.00 bonus

Cons

Very repetitive and long (but worth the pay)

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
