Pros
The experiment says it will take about an hour to complete, which thankfully isn't the case here. The entire HIT is done within the iframe.3 part experiment:
First part has you hitting one key or two keys that are highlighted in a set of 5 keys. This is exactly the same as the key sequence tasks that Dani Bassett Lab uses. There are about 800 trials for this part, and takes about 15 minutes.
Second part has you hitting a letter when you see it. Nothing about this is too difficult, and there are about 1000 trials that take about 20 minutes.
Third part is an interesting task that has you reflecting on the trials you completed, followed by your typical demographics questions. This takes about 2 minutes.
There is a $2 bonus if you complete the two trials with 90%+ accuracy.
Cons
You're going to need a lot of willpower to get through this. The trials will take forever and will strain your hands, especially your left hand. The progress bars provided are painfully accurate, and they move VERY. SLOWLY. It is recommended that you have some sort of music or entertainment going on, as this drags on for what feels like forever.The background is white, so it will strain your eyes as you're focusing on one part of the screen. It is especially straining for the first trial, since you're looking for the light green outline against a white background.
The keybinds for the first trial are set up in a way that induces strain and makes it very confusing. If you've played rhythm games, you'll know that these keybinds are horrible for the trial presented, especially when you're trying to do these accurately and in a fast manner.
For the second trial, almost all of the keys will be typed with the left hand. It will make your left hand hurt, especially after the first trial.
If you do not like doing Inquisit-like tasks for 20 minutes straight, avoid this.

Pros
It has a progress bar, and it seems like you can do it at your own pace and take breaks between parts.Cons
This seriously sucks, 2 rounds of soul crushingly repetitive key pressing to the point of sheer agony and dismay. There was a part three after the gut wrenching eye ball crushing finger destroying keyboard tasks that asked me about the patterns of the task I just completed as if I could possibly remember anything amidst the sea of endless repetitive keystrokes. Bonus not disclosed.It's all done in the hit frame so god help you if you get logged out afterwards.

Pros
If you don't mess up the comprehension questions, you get a minimum bonus of $1 plus a performance bonus. Pretty well paid consolation imo, if it approvesCons
I misclicked a question on the comprehension quiz, and it said I got more than one questions wrong (only messed up one tho) and then auto-submitted. Not sure if that was intentional or not
