i some how dont have a badge still @ChrisTurk

 

I actually sent Rail Robotics their requester profile..

Rail Robotics reply-
That's really interesting!! Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my questions.

The only HIT's I've personally handled are the Robot Interaction Study ones (I'm not sure which particular study you sent this email for). I will send your feedback about the Smart Home Explanation survey to my colleague.

Best,

Jack

Are the suggestions above helpful?


This was my detailed email to Rail Robotics
Interesting, I was worried that at 90% we would cut away too many participants so we wouldn't get results in a timely manner. As a worker is 99% a difficult threshold to reach?
Not really, because our goal is to have as few rejected hits as possible. Also, no one is perfect. Other requesters can still reject a hit.

Also, how much do workers like yourself typically make per hour via MTurk? We try to compensate research participants fairly (instead of as little as possible), so what would you say is a typical earnings/hour that we can base our compensation on? That really depends on the pacing speed of the worker/type of laptop.. it varies from one person to another..
Your other hits aside from the Smart Home survey are very generous.
I will say that right now, aside from the $1.20 Smart Home Explanation Survey, your other hits are very generous!
The other hits information sounds exciting, but the Smart Home Explanation info-
Evaluate some statements which are describing the actions of a person in a smart home.
That sounds boring.. whereas the other hits are games

The workers love you for how generous you are, Jack.
I think the Smart Home Explanation survey needs some fine-tuning because no one has reviewed that hit at all.
1. The reward.
2. You don't specify how long the survey will take in either the title or in the description, whereas you were specific in your other hits.
That's my advice, Jack.
Now as for the other hits,
You can also include some bonuses, but from the TurkerView Page, you are fine. So keep on with what you're doing. If I were to take your Participate in a Robot Interaction Study, I will probably finish your hit in 20 minutes.
You can also bring back Virtual Robot Control for $12. Even people will take about 40 minutes for that and still find it generous. It is like a piranha fishbowl for the $12 hit. That's how rare a $10 or more hit is, Jack.

 

WOWZA! That was a game.

 

Did you get your tv yet, @Kirk Staley ?
