Maia Relaxed Pace
25-min Inquisit experiment. Attention and estimation task - $3.00 +3.00 bonus Confirmed!

Generous

Unrated

Approved

$16.74 / hour

00:21:30 / completion time

Pros

Didn't remember any mention of a bonus, but I got one and it's greatly appreciated. The HIT itself was interesting and aside from the interface being a little fidgety on my OS, it worked fine otherwise. If you're working on a Chromebook and have a history of having to return Inquisit HITs because of a lack of functionality, there's now an app in the Playstore that works just fine. It was also approved and paid out (including bonus) within hours.

Cons

Uses Inquisit, which I know a lot of people have issues with, including the fact that I wasn't able to copy/paste the completion code and had to type it in, which is always a risk. The interface for the HIT was also a little persnickety.

Advice to Requester

Thank you for the bonus!

30 min experiment on word categorization and time estimation (Inquisit-based) - $7.00

Good

Unrated

Approved

$17.97 / hour

00:23:22 / completion time

Pros

Pay is fair and requesters estimate (30 mins) is pretty accurate (if not slightly high)
Download software, read instructions and do a practice trial. After that, it's six rounds of 16 trials. Before each trial you have to move a slider then it's just a keyboard task. Each round took me 2.5-3 minutes.
4 hour timer

Cons

Inquisit, but requester is upfront and even mentions it in the HIT title
A little tedious but you can take a break in between rounds if need be

Approved

$13.62 / hour

Pros

Fast approval.

Cons

This was beyond tedious and a test of patience. The entire task just felt awkward because you have to keep switching back and forth to do the stuff they want. If I could go back in time, punch myself in the face so I could avoid doing this hit, I most certainly would. There is no way to speed this up either. After the task, there are a few questions and brief writing.
