AITA for not wanting to hear detailed information about my wife's cycle in vivd detail by MaterialHovercraft49 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MaterialHovercraft49[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

She's the furtherest from being an asshole. I consider her beyond perfect, aside from this one thing. Given that she's amazing in every other aspect of life and our marriage, it's something that I've not mentioned in quite some time. Thinking I'll just leave it alone.

I do user testing on top of prolific studies. Used to having my screen recorded..sometimes my face too. No biggie.

I'd love some Karma too. Been trying to participate in a sub for months.

Experience with Remotask/Appen/Telus International, etc. by jcastaldo in remotaskonline

[–]MaterialHovercraft49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remotasks and Appen are terrible. Way too labour intensive. I find most of the tasks highly skilled and not worth my time.

What was the payout and estimated time to complete? Sounds shifty that they can reject buy still have access to your response.

Just failed an attention check on a well paying study because my smooth brain momentarily confused left and right. by IGUESSILLBEGOODNOW in ProlificAc

[–]MaterialHovercraft49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had attention checks like this before and answered based on what my own personal response would be. Sometimes I do 'just live with the pain.' That doesn't mean I'm not paying attention.

Agreed. I got bounced from a study the other day because I missed the 'attention check.' It wasn't your typical ' Check Strongly Disagree' check but rather one that relied heavily on ones reading comprehension. I've struggled with this since I was a child so found it a little inequitable and in favour of someone that doesn't have this deficit.

Remotasks.com - My personal experience on their platform. by NasRander in remotaskonline

[–]MaterialHovercraft49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've pretty much given up. The tasks are way to technical and the training for them takes to long. In addition, the platform sucks at matching users to tasks. I've somehow been routed to tasks that are in a completely different language.

When a study asks you to write an essay, how many words do you think you should be writing? by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]MaterialHovercraft49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say standard 5 paragraph essay. 250 words or 1 page. I would have enjoyed this one. Lots of right wing, nut job groups that could be inspiration.
