Pros

Emily Weiss. a student in the Psychology department at The School, under the direction of Dr. McWelling Todman

First page had a 1:15 timer for 7 bubble MC , this is going to be fun. You couldn't advance until the timer was up.

Second page has a 2:30 timer for 25 bubble MC , you cannot progress until the timer is up.

We are currently at $5/hour

If I look away, it feels the timer is going slower than normal.

Another 1:15 timer for ~10 bubble MC . Another minute of sitting.

We're coming up on $2/hour now.

THE FIRST PAGE WITHOUT A TIMER!!! YES!

... and back with another 1 minute timer for 7 ):

ANOTHER 1:15 minute timer

... two and thirty seconds for 21 bubbles. What should I in my TV review for the next two while the timer ticks down?

Another 1:15 minute timer

We're at $1/hour pay

And to top it all off, as if you think it couldn't get ANY WORSE

INQUISIT

just kidding.

a 45 second timer on the demographics page.

oh wait, we're not done after the demographics, this is now another 1:15 minute timer for 20 .

AND ANOTHER 1:15 minute timer.

This is the 15 minute mark folks, the hit is officially paying less than 1 dollar per hour.

FREEDOM!!!

Approved

$5.74 / hour

Pros

Cons

The survey was all of those same boring psychological questions we have all seen before. So I get through your underpaid survey, completion time almost 11 minutes, got a completion code; clicked on your next button to submit my data to you, and on the next page I get a message that says: Thank you for your interest in the study. However, you either responded "no" to the consent form or are not eligible for the study at this time.

Advice to Requester

I'll be reaching out if this is rejected. I clicked yes on the consent form, you can't reject how I feel, and there were no attention checks.

$7.74 / hour

Pros

ymmv. Pay should be better, but I think I could have done this in ~6 minutes if I was really flying. 97% approval, so pretty safe task.

Cons

ymmv. Looks like it took the only other reviewer 10+ minutes. Kind of random questions on the last page that felt like comprehension questions, but could be answered multiple ways.

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
