Unity games / Surveys - $1.00

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$2.73 / hour

00:22:00 / completion time

Pros

The advice to make sure the game loaded before doing the hit was good. Unity Player is slow on my connection (WIFI hotspot on a 4GLTE phone) and it took ~5 minutes to load. (I didn't accept the hit until I was sure the player loaded so the time here does not include that.)

Cons

- Text explanations (the few there were) had English issues. This needed proofreading before it was posted.
- The game is a YMMV experience. If you're familiar with this type of game you may find it easy. I never play games like this; I never did figure it out and finally just gave up out of frustration after ~10 minutes of trying to play it.

Advice to Requester

It might help to limit this to people who are familiar with this type of game. They will probably find it less frustrating, and your data may be more useful. Please also have someone who is fluent in English proofread the text before it's posted.

Play an RPG game in Unity; complete surveys - $1.50

Good

Unrated

Approved

$12.24 / hour

00:07:21 / completion time

Pros

Game was cool to play, I paused my timer once I finished the first "quest" since I think that's probably as far as you NEED to play but I did keep playing a bit after that. Unpaused it once I resumed the actual HIT to try & give a fair portrayal of how much time you're "required" to spend (even though you could cut it even shorter if you wanted I guess).
No writing, its all bubbles after the game.

Approved in an hour or so.

Cons

If you aren't a "gamer" this is going to be a nightmare to pickup/get through haha. Web based MMO type interface so WASD movement & keybinding for spells/etc is not going to be intuitive or make any sense to someone totally unfamiliar with this style of task.

Play a simple game in Unity; complete surveys - $0.75

Unrated

Unrated

Approved

$2.14 / hour

00:21:00 / completion time

Pros

- no loading or other problems

Cons

- The pay is too low for what's required. I think the amount of time needed to spend on the game would vary with the complexity, but then there's the survey afterword, and it's not only fairly long but also has several writing questions. One is about feedback so some people might be able to skip it; I've always had to use it.

- The description for this says "simple game" (which is the only reason I tried it). I did think it was simple but it's not my idea of a "game;" I can't explain more without revealing some of the content, and this is an academic survey. Also - maybe I missed something; there were no instructions...

Advice to Requester

Please include instructions for even your simple games.

Wage Aggregates

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
