Dallinger Compensation HIT - $2.40 +2.70 bonus Confirmed!

Generous

Excellent

Approved

$13.30 / hour

00:23:00 / completion time

Pros

I'm using this to rate the actual HIT (a "sing along to the tune" kind of HIT) rather than the comp HIT, since the original HIT didn't show up on Turkerview because I did it in another browser without the TV extension.

I added up the amounts from the comp HIT and actual HIT's pay-plus-bonus to get the total payment that I used to calculate the hourly. I actually ended up making more than the maximum the HIT could have theoretically paid, which I'm assuming was because the Requester felt bad about his mistake and was extra generous to make up for it.


To any Requesters that read these reviews...this is an example of how you do things *right* when there is a problem with a HIT!! The original HIT had a bug that caused an issue with the bonus part of my payment, so when I contacted the Requester, he checked the code in his HIT, saw the bug, and quickly made me a comp HIT. No delays, no demanding evidence (though the code itself ended up being the evidence) no having to contact the IRB...just "oh crap, I messed up, I'll make sure you're compensated" and then did so. Bravo!!

Cons

None.

Dallinger Compensation HIT - $5.00

Generous

Excellent

Approved

$21.38 / hour

00:14:02 / completion time

Pros

I completed this HIT as a comp HIT for another task which took around 14 minutes and which had a technical error so I wasn't able to submit it.

I drafted a polite and very detailed email to the Requester and they made this HIT for me as a comp; not only did they comp for the initial $2.00 or so I would've been paid for the HIT that had the error, but they even threw in a couple of dollars extra for the effort it took to email them about it!

Folks, THAT'S how you do customer / worker service! Major props to this Requester for quickly resolving the problem and for responsiveness.

Cons

None

Listen to sounds and answer questions (bonus up to $2.75!) - $0.10 +2.65 bonus Confirmed!

Good

Unrated

Approved

$11.00 / hour

00:15:00 / completion time

Pros

If it you can get the full bonus, then it seems like a better hourly than what I got.
Bonus paid out in minutes.

EDIT: Requester gave me an extra 1.45 in a separate bonus a bit after sending 1.20. Guessing he manually checked the recordings I tried to do, and they were in fact OK, or maybe, he or she read the comments I left. *Adding 5 minutes to my time to more accurately reflect the expected hourly had I been able to complete the survey.

Cons

Recordings of my tapping weren't recording correctly, so I only got a 1.20 bonus. :-( Computer is only a few years old too. Usually am able to record just fine.

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
