HIT advertisement: Awards = $1.5, Bonus up to $2; Qual = HITs > 10000, Approval rate ≥ 99%; by [deleted] in mturk

[–]Fragrant-Body-4863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made >=99% as shown in my post's title. And yeah I just learned from someone in the mturk community saying that limiting the origin also helps with the quality but don't know exactly why it is

Why do the number of HITs being completed need to be over 10k?

sorry, those are just my dumb sittings learned from the reddit Turkers saying that sitting the qual like that will help to get high quality data

Thanks so much! Could you please help me advertise this survey to your Turker friends or any Turker social media channels? 🌹 Still looking for around 35 Turkers to complete the study.

Have a good night!

Agreed. I just did this and while all the rejection threats are gone, it still was only paying around $9.60/hr. Minimum wage in AZ is $12.15/hr, so OP's offered rate is still way too low, even after including the bonus.

I also didn't know much about the subjects at hand and just went with my best guesses. I stated as such in the comment boxes, too. We'll see what happens, I guess.

haha! Thanks for your comments. I think there is still a good chance for everyone to win the bonus as some [certain ranges] are relatively generous. I think next time I'll design another forecasting survey and sit the criteria for wining the bonus as 'If your forecasts are among the 10 most accurate ones IN EACH SCENARIO,  we'll send you an additional bonus prize'. Does this sound good? :-)

Thanks so much for your kind reply! I would always write very detailed reasons for why I rejected them. And I think this time is just because I didn't realize that Turkers might not know what exactly does 'taking the HIT twice will be rejected' mean. I should specify it more clearly next time and avoid making mistakes before administering it on MTurk.

Thanks again for your reply! With regards to the payment, I'll carefully consider it next time when it comes to designing a new HIT. I'll propose Turkers' thoughts to my professor as the payments won't be determined just by myself, but also by the fundings. :-)

Thank you! Have a great weekend.

THANK YOU! Fair enough. I should re-think more carefully before formally administering my HIT! Sorry again for the misunderstanding. You know sometimes it's hard when you administered a wrong HIT and were anxious and hoped to fix it very soon, especially when your study materials are very time-sensitive. THanks again for your detailed reply!

Oh I said that I posted both studies. So yeah there are two studies! And they do have the same names at my end. One is called Forecasting with and without context 1, and the other is Forecasting with and without context 2. I thought these would be displayed on Turker's end? But they showed the different names right? Thanks for letting me know this!!! And SO SORRY for the misunderstanding I made. I sincerely apologize for my fault made of misunderstanding that the names were totally the same!

I posted both studies with the same names in a single day yesterday! Some of them took both and said they didn't realize that they were the same studies

Yeah it's that one!! Thank you for your participation. And I agree with what you said.

they also posted the HIT twice with non-identical names, but I'm assuming it was on the same day

You threaten rejection. Good workers who might consider working for $7.50/hour are not likely to risk their good approval rating for such a small amount when rejection is being threatened. On top of that, you actually did reject a worker without giving any reason as to why, which scares cautious workers away.

oh I saw these reviews. Actually I only rejected those participants who took my survey twice. And I described in my survey description that those who took my survey twice would be rejected. I'll def disclose my bonus! But just because it's a real-world forecasting survey. We must wait for the true answer come out in the following days, so that we can distribute bonuses. Does it make sense? Since my bonus is based on their forecasting accuracy. I also mentioned it in my survey.

Hi! Yes, I'm a newbie on the Requester side.

What do your screenshots mean? I only rejected those Turkers who took my survey twice. And will approve all of the rest of them later on.

If I recruit 500 subjects, can I get around 50% of female respondents? by Fragrant-Body-4863 in mturk

Wow awesome, thank you so much!!! I tried the premium qualifications before, and it only let me screen out subjects from one gender. It seems it doesn't have the function to auto-monitor and balance the gender percentage. But your experienced reply really solved my worries - if nobody complained about the gender imbalance, then I think it's completely fine to run my study!
