Given woefully insufficient information about some fictitious person, click the bubbles to say how much (on a scale like 1 to 10) this person is e.g.: "Disciplined", "Lacking self-control", "Selfish", "Unselfish", etc.

"There are no right or wrong answers" ... but "nonsensical" answers will be rejected, say the notes.

With virtually NO useful information about the person — (she stared at a food photo, so what?) — the truth is:

"I don't know if she's disciplined." — "I don't know if she lacks self-control." ...
"I've no clue how selfish she is." — "I've no clue how unselfish she is." ...

She stared at a food photo. — Tat does NOT inspire me to adopt any opinion about the attributes.

(This is why I'm not good with these surveys. I refuse to adopt opinions with insufficient evidence. My brain hates that. Yes I should just answer and take the $0.30, but my brain resists.)

On the scale of 1-to-10 or whatever, do I pick the middle option like "5" to mean "I don't know" for each attribute?

No, in this case I assume the middle option does NOT mean "IDK" — rather it probably means "MODERATELY YES". ... ("1" means "She does NOT have that attribute" — 3 means "she SLIGHTLY has it" — 5 means "she MODERATELY has it" — 8 means "she CLEARLY has it" — 10 means "she TOTALLY maxes out on that attribute.")

So to avoid a "nonsensical" response — such as picking "5" for every contrasting attribute, which would result in contradictions because "5" means "moderately yes" (NOT "I don't know") — I must make these relative judgments on these contrastic attributes (such as "Disciplined" and "Lacking self-control", one must be greater than the other; likewise "Selfish" and "Unselfish", one must be greater than the other).

How do I say "I don't know "? — I don't know to what degree she has each of these contrasting attributes. — But the survey won't let me say that.

Returned, forget the $0.30.

I have to do surveys it's the only way I can make money for however I am turking. I have found not one single thing on mturk that would be considered a good batch for me. I'm not complaining and I'm sure sooner or later I will figure it out with persistence. (this is not a call for help I will get it on my own

Typing this up probably took longer than actually doing the survey, you know that, right?

You're thinking too much. Give it the minimum amount of thought required and move on.

I know, it's not rocket science.

As I explained, my brain resists some types of surveys, or the way some of them are presented. — That's on me (my brain and I) — if I don't want to do such surveys, then I shouldn't do them. — Simple as that. — I was just venting (not too seriously).
