Picture Study(~ 60 minutes) - $7.00

Underpaid

Unrated

Approved

$9.42 / hour

00:44:34 / completion time

Pros

Long timer. You can take breaks but with the way inqusit is you cannot stop the hit timer so you won't get an accurate time so I just kept going. If there is a way to stop Inqusit to get back to the hit page it would be easier. As far as I know, you can't do that but I could be wrong.

Cons

If you got nothing better to do might be worth it even though the pay is atrocious. For the content you have to see this is going to be triggering for some, hence the pay should be much higher. I only did this because it was a slow week for me. Had it not been I would have passed on this. This was rather disturbing but at least they warn you about that. Had this been shorter this may have been tolerable but this never ended with constant repetitive tasks.

UWA research - attention and resilience task(~ 60 minutes) - $10.00 +11.05 bonus

Unrated

Unrated

Approved

$18.68 / hour

01:07:37 / completion time

Pros

No great deal of cognitive effort required. Not too many bubbles. The main task is easy to get the hang of. If you pay attention you can more than double your earnings. Could be done faster; I took a few breaks.

Cons

Requires Inquisit. Some of the questions could be potentially upsetting because they ask about difficult situations you may have experienced over the last year. Didn't consider the questions too personal though. Just answer yes or no to signify if something happened and then use sliders to rate how upsetting or difficult it was. The "training" for main task can feel a bit annoying and time consuming.

Research project - Attention to shapes(~ 40 minutes) - $3.00

Low

Good

Approved

$4.11 / hour

00:43:46 / completion time

Pros

Pages of 'your mood' questions followed by a shapes task (that uses your number pad). Has a possible bonus that depends on the shape task (lets you know at the end of the study what that could be). Payment and bonus was paid same day.
note: my bonus was paid because of the amount of time taken (didn't do so well with the shape task) - which made my day :)

Cons

Inquisit software. Need to have a number pad on your computer/laptop to take this.

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
